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...
