Wait A Little Longer Please Jesus Lyrics - Del Reeves

Here the labor is so hard the workers are so tired 

And our weary hearts are yearning for a rest 

And we 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 still wandering out in sin 

Just a little longer please Jesus 

A few more days to get our loved ones in 

We may look into the skies and tears will fill our eyes 

For our burdened hearts grow heavier with each day 

First we cry oh Lord, please come 

Come and take your children home 

But then we look around us and say 

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 

The family scattered here and there 

But Lord we love them dear 

And maybe we can help them find a way 

But if waiting is the cost then might not be lost 

Lord that's the only reason why we say 

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
