The Last Mile of the Way
Words by Johnson Oatman Jr.

Verse 1:

      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
            A            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:
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

Repeat Chorus

Here the dearest of ties we must sever
Tears of sorrow are seen ev?ry day
But no sickness, no sighing forever
When I?ve gone the last mile of the way

Repeat Chorus

Verse 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
