1
If I walk in the pathway of duty, If I work till the close of the day; I shall see the great King in His beauty When I've gone the last mile of the way.
2
If for Christ I proclaim the glad story, If I seek for His sheep gone astray; I am sure He will show me His glory When I've gone the last mile of the way.
3
Here the dearest of ties we must sever, Tears of sorrow are seen everyday; But no sickness, no sighing forever When I've gone the last mile of the way.
4
And if here I have earnestly striven And have tried all His will to obey; 'Twill enhance all the rapture of heaven When I've gone the last mile of the way.
