Wait a Little Longer, Please Jesus Songtext
von George Jones

Wait a little longer, please, Jesus
There are so many wanderin′, have sinned
Just a little longer, please, Jesus
A few more days, to get our loved ones in

Here, the labor is so hard, and the workers are so tired
And their weary hearts are yearning for a rest
And they find they're getting anxious
To be in that happy land
Where they′ll receive, such peace and happiness


Wait a little longer, please, Jesus
There are so many wanderin', have sinned
Just a little longer, please, Jesus
A few more days, to get our loved ones in

We look into the skies, and tears will fill our eyes
And our weary hearts grow heavier, with each day
We cry, oh Lord, please, come
And take your children home
But, then we look around us, and we say

Wait a little longer, please, Jesus
There are so many wanderin', have sinned
Just a little longer, please, Jesus
A few more days, to get our loved ones in
