CHORUS
TARRY HERE A LITTLE WHILE MY BROTHER.
TARRY HERE AND WORK WHILE IT'S DAY.
TARRY HERE IT WON'T BE MUCH LONGER.
TILL I COME BACK TO TAKE YOU AWAY.
I
IT MUST HAVE BEEN A SAD DAY FOR ALL HIS DISCIPLES,
WHEN JESUS WAS GOING AWAY.
AS HE ROSE THROUGH THE CLOUDS HE LEFT THEM THIS MESSAGE.
I'LL COME BACK FOR YOU THE SAME WAY.
II
NOW THIS ROAD THAT I TRAVEL, SOMETIME IT GETS SO ROCKY.
AND IT SEEMS LIKE I JUST CAN'T GO ON,
BUT THE THOUGHT CHEER MY HEART WHEN I STOP TO REMEMBER,
VERY SOON WE'RE ALL GOING HOME.
