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

Here the labor is so hard and the workers are so tired

And our weary hearts are yearning for a rest

And we find we're gettin' anxious to be in that happy name

Where we'll reseive 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

We may look into the skies and tears will fill our eyes

When our burdened hearts grow heavier with each day

First we cry oh Lord please come

Come and take your children home

Then we look around and suddenly we say

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
