Will He Wait A Little Longer - Flatt & Scruggs and The Stanley Brothers, The Stanley Brothers

On cruel Calvary where he suffered

There he died upon the cross

That we might be saved my brother

Freed from sin and not be lost

Will he wait a little longer

There’s so many out in sin

Will he wait a little longer

Give us time to gather in

A vision of that mangled body

I can see his nail-scarred hands

When He calls me way up yonder

I will hear and understand

Many loved ones gone before me

They’ve made their peace for the final day

But should He call before they’re ready

I can almost him them say
