The Last Mile of the Way

If I walk in the pathway of duty

If I work ?til the close of the day, Lord

I shall see the great king in all his beauty

When I've gone the last mile of the way, Lord, yes sir

When I've gone the last mile of the way, oh yeah

I shall rest at the close of day

For I know there are joy awaiting

When I've gone the last mile of the way

If I were, for Christ to proclaim the glad story, oh Lord

If I see for his sheep who gone astray, oh Lord

I am sure he will show me in his glory

When I've gone the last mile of the way, Lord, yes sir

When I've gone the last mile of the way, oh yes

I shall rest at the close of day, oh yeah

For I know, there are joy awaiting

When I've gone the last mile of the way
