Here the labor is so hard

And the workers they are tired

And our weary hearts're yearning for a rest

And I find we're getting anxious

To be in that happy home

Where we'll receive such peace and happiness

But wait a little longer please

Jesus there are so many wandering out in sin

Just a little longer please Jesus a few more days

To get our loved ones in

Family scattered here and there

And thought Lord we love them dear

Maybe we can help them find a way

But if waiting is the cost

Dear ol' Lord then I'll be lost

And that's the only reason why we say

Wait a little longer please Jesus

There are so many wandering out in sin

Just a little longer please Jesus a few more days

To get our loved ones in

A few more days to get our loved ones in
