Wait a little longer please Jesus there are so many still 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 home
Where we'll reseive such peace and happiness
But wait a little longer please Jesus
[ guitar ]
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
