When I've Gone The Last Mile

If I walk in the pathway of duty,
If I walk till the close of the day
I shall see the King in His beauty,
When I've gone the last mile of the way.

CHORUS
When I've gone the last mile of the way
I will rest at the close of the day
And I know there are joys that await me,
When I've gone the last mile of the way.

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.

CHORUS
When I've gone the last mile of the way
I will rest at the close of the day
And I know there are joys that await me,
When I've gone the last mile of the way.

Here the dearest of ties we must severe
Tears of sorrows are seen every day,
But no sickness only singing forever,
When I've gone the last mile of the way.

CHORUS
When I've gone the last mile of the way
I will rest at the close of the day
And I know there are joys that await me,
When I've gone the last mile of the way.

And if here I have earnestly striven
And have tried all His will to obey,
Till I enhance all the rapture of heaven,
When I've gone the last mile of the way.

CHORUS
When I've gone the last mile of the way
I will rest at the close of the day
And I know there are joys that await me,
When I've gone the last mile of the way.
