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
