1 There's a place for ev'ry one,
In the path of duty;
There is work that must be done,
In the path of duty.

Chorus:
In the path of duty,
Blessed path of duty;
Joy unspeakable I find,
In the path of duty.

2 'Tis a blessed place to be,
In the path of duty;
Jesus comes and walks with me,
In the path of duty. [Chorus]

3 Help to others we can give,
In the path of duty;
Souls once dead are made to live;
In the path of duty. [Chorus]

4 O 'tis sweet with Christ to walk,
In the path of duty;
O 'tis good with him to talk,
In the path of duty. [Chorus]

5 Cares of life are left behind,
In the path of duty;
Heaven's duty I soon shall find,
In the path of duty. [Chorus]
