Verse 1
If I walk in the pathway of duty,
If I work to the close of the day,
then I know there's joy that awaits me
when I've gone the last mile of the way.
Verse 2
If for Christ I proclaim the glad story,
if I seek for sheep gone astray,
then I know there's joy that awaits me
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,
for I know there's joy that awaits me
when I've gone the last mile of the way.
