On cruel Calvary where he suffered
There he died upon the cross
That we might be saved my brother
Freed from sin and not be lost
Will he wait a little longer
There's so many out in sin
Will he wait a little longer
Give us time to gather in
A vision of that mangled body
I can see his nail-scarred hands
When He calls me way up yonder
I will hear and understand
Many loved ones gone before me
They've made their peace for the final day
But should He call before they're ready
I can almost him them say
There he died upon the cross
That we might be saved my brother
Freed from sin and not be lost
Will he wait a little longer
There's so many out in sin
Will he wait a little longer
Give us time to gather in
A vision of that mangled body
I can see his nail-scarred hands
When He calls me way up yonder
I will hear and understand
Many loved ones gone before me
They've made their peace for the final day
But should He call before they're ready
I can almost him them say
