Just A Little While To Stay Here Lyrics & Chords

By John Scofield

(D)Soon this life will (A)all be (D)over

And our pilgrimage (A)will (D)end

(G)Soon we'll take our heaven(D)ly (B)ourney

(E)Be at home with Christ our (A)friends(D)



Heaven's gates are standing open

Waiting for our entrance there

Some sweet day we're going over

All the beauties there to share



Chorus

Just a little while to stay here (stay here)

Just a little while to wait (to wait)

Just a little while to labor (labor)

In the path that's always straight (that's always straight and narrow)



Just a little more of trouble (trouble)

In this low and sinful state (sinful state)

Then we'll enter heaven's portals

Sweeping through the pearly gates (pearly gates)



Soon we'll meet all the redeemed ones

And we'll take them by the hand

Soon we'll press into our bosom

Over in the promised land



Then we'll be at home forever

Through out all eternity

What a blessed, blessed morning

That eternal morn will be
