      D                      A7
If I walk in the pathway of duty

                                 D
If I work ‘til the close of the day

         D             D7           G
I shall see the great King in His beauty

           D             A7          D
When I’ve gone the last mile of the way
Chorus:
            D            B7          Em
When I’ve gone the last mile of the way

        A7                       D
I will rest at the close of the day

                      D7         G
And I know there are joys that await me

           D             A7          D
When I’ve gone the last mile of the way
Verse 2:
         D                         A7
If for Christ I proclaim the glad story

                               D
If I seek for His sheep gone astray

      D            D7           G
I am sure He will show me His glory

           D             A7          D
When I’ve gone the last mile of the way
Repeat Chorus Verse 3:
            D                     A7
Here the dearest of ties we must sever

                                D
Tears of sorrow are seen ev’ry day

          D           D7       G
But no sickness, no sighing forever

           D             A7          D
When I’ve gone the last mile of the way
Repeat Chorus Verse 4:
        D                      A7
And if here I have earnestly striven

                                D
And have tried all His will to obey

          D              D7         G
’Twill enhance all the rapture of Heaven

           D             A7          D
When I’ve gone the last mile of the way
Repeat Chorus
