Just A Little While To Stay Here

Soon this life will all be over
 And our pilgrimage will end
 Soon we'll take our heavenly journey
 Yeah, and be at home with friends again
 Heaven's gates are standing open
 Waiting for our entrance there
 Some sweet day we're going over
 And all the beauties there to share
 That's why I'm saying
 Just a little while to stay here
 Just a little while to wait
 Just a little while to labor
 In the path that's always straight
 Oh, just a little more of sorrow
 In this low and sinful state
 Then we'll enter heaven's portals
 Sweeping through those pearly gates
 Just a little while to stay here
 Just a little while to wait, oh
 Just a little while to labor
 In the path that's always straight
 Oh, just a little more of sorrow
 In this low and sinful state
 Then we'll enter heaven's portals
 Sweeping through the pearly gates
