Bill Monroe - Wait A Little Longer, Please Jesus lyrics

Here the labor is so hard and the workers are 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

chorus

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

For our weary hearts grow heavy with each day

First we cry oh Lord please come,come and take our children home

And then we look around us and we say,

chorus

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 well they might not be lost

Lord that's the reason why we say,

Chorus

But wait a little longer please Jesus

There's still so many wanderin' out in sin

Just a little longer please Jesus

Just a few more days to get our loved ones in
