Wait a Little Longer, Please Jesus
Longing Hearts and Urgent Prayers: A Plea for Grace
Lyrics
Here the labor is so hard and the workers they are tired
Expressing the difficulty of labor and the fatigue of workers.
And our weary hearts're yearning for a rest
Desire for a rest, indicating weariness of hearts.
And I find we're getting anxious to be in that happy home
Feeling an eagerness to be in a joyful home.
Where we'll receive such peace and happiness
Anticipation of receiving peace and happiness in that home.
But wait a little longer, please Jesus
Requesting Jesus to wait a little longer.
There are so many wandering out in sin
Noting the presence of many people lost in sin.
Just a little longer, please Jesus
Repeating the plea for Jesus to wait a little longer.
A few more days to get our loved ones in
Asking for a few more days to bring loved ones into salvation.
Family scattered here and there and thought, Lord we love them dear
Acknowledging the dispersion of family members and expressing love for them.
Maybe we can help them find a way
Expressing a hope to guide family members on the right path.
But if waiting is the cost, dear ol' Lord, then I'll be lost
Accepting waiting, even if it means personal sacrifice.
And that's the only reason why we say
Stating that the only reason for waiting is the desire to save loved ones.
Wait a little longer, please Jesus
Reiterating the request for Jesus to wait a little longer.
There are so many wandering out in sin
Highlighting the prevalence of people lost in sin.
Just a little longer, please Jesus
Continuing to ask Jesus to delay for a little longer.
A few more days to get our loved ones in
Requesting additional time to bring loved ones into salvation.
A few more days to get our loved ones in
Repeating the plea for a few more days to save loved ones.
