(Hazel Houser - Chester Smith)
Merle Haggard & Bonnie Owens

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 reseive 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
A few more days to get our loved ones in.

A few more days to get our loved ones in...
