The Late, Mr. George French, "Just a little while to Stay Here"

Many thoughts and prayers go out to the friends and family of Brother George who went to be with the LORD yesterday.

Below he sings, "Just a little while to Stay Here".  (Lyrics below the video)

He is there now.

Here are the words he is singing:

Soon this life will all be over

And our pilgrimage will end.

Soon we'll take our Heavenly journey

Be at home again with friends.

Heaven's gates are standing open

Waiting for our entrance there.

Some sweet day we're going over

All the beauties there to share.

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 (that's always straight and narrow).

Just a little more of troubles

In this low and sinful state.

Then we'll enter Heaven's portals

Sweeping through the pearly gates.

Soon we'll see the lights of morning

And the new day will begin.

Soon we'll hear the Father calling:

"Come my children, enter in".

And we'll hear a choir of angels

Singing out the vic'try song.

All our troubles will be ended

And we'll be with Heaven's throng.

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 (that's always straight and narrow).

Just a little more of troubles

In this low and sinful state.

Then we'll enter Heaven's portals

Sweeping through the pearly gates.

(Just a little while, just a little while, just a little while, just a little while)

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 (that's always straight and narrow).

Just a little more of troubles

In this low and sinful state.

Then we'll enter Heaven's portals

Sweeping through the pearly gates.

Then we'll enter Heaven's portals

Sweeping through the pearly gates.
