WAIT A LITTLE LONGER PLEASE JESUS

by: Hazel Houser & Chester Smith

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.

There are so many still wandering out in sin.

For our weary hearts grow heavy with each day.

And maybe we can help them find the way.

Lord, that's the only reason why we say:

CHORUS:
