Wait a Little Longer Please Jesus
Hazel Houser & Chester Smith
1.
Here the labor is so hard and the workers are so tired
And our weary hearts are longing for a rest
And we find we're getting anxious to be in that happy land
Where we'll enjoy some peace and happiness.
But wait a little longer, please, Jesus
There's so many still wandering out in sin
Just a little longer, please, Jesus
A few more days to get our loved ones in.
2.
We may look into the skies and tears will fill our eyes
For our burdened hearts grow heavier with each day
First we cry "O Lord please come, come and take your children home"
And then we look around us and we say:
Wait a little longer, please, Jesus
There's so many still wandering out in sin
Just a little longer, please, Jesus
A few more days to get our loved ones in.
3.
The family's scattered here and there, but Lord we love them dear
And maybe we can help them find the way
Well, if waiting is the cost, that they might not be lost
Lord, that's the only reason why we say:
Wait a little longer, please, Jesus
There's so many still wandering out in sin
Just a little longer, please, Jesus
A few more days to get our loved ones in.
