The automobile of life
Some people are just like an automobile they'll run fine when every thing is rightWhen the roads are all clear and the weather is fine and there's pleanty of sunshine and lightBut often they come to a wash out and then get stuck and have to detureMaby a break in the casting will porve they never were built to endure

(cho)Get plenty of water and plenty of oil and the best gasoline you can findHave the engin tuned up and look out for your breaks you'll have some hard places to climbLook out for the tires for the blowouts will come on a dangerious curve deep and nieghBut if you'll let jesus take hold of the wheel you'll make it to heaven on high
Some auto's are painted and polished so bright they sell for more than they are worthAnd some people think their profession will do stop short of the bibles new birthJust start up your engen and then you can tell if the thing is hitting on sixFor if you depend on the looks of the car you'll be in a terable fix
Now all our profession's of powder and paint tho lovely upon the outsideWon't answer to god for he looks on the heart it matters not how hard we've triedSo if you are stuck in the quicksand of sin a wondering and flowendering aboutJust let god's great engin of glory and grace with a cable of love pull you out
