Here the labor is so hard and the workers they are tired And our weary hearts're yearning for a rest And I find we're getting anxious to be in that happy home Where we'll receive 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
Family scattered here and there and thought, Lord we love them dear Maybe we can help them find a way But if waiting is the cost, dear ol' Lord, then I'll be lost And that's the only reason why we say
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 A few more days to get our loved ones in.
