In A Little While

Got a (C#dim7)ticket coming (Dm)home, wish the (D#dim7)officer had (Em)known what a (Fdim7)day today has (Am)been.

(C)Then I (C#dim7)stumbled thro' the (Dm)door,

dropping (D#dim7)junk mail on the (Fdim7)floor.

When When will this day (Am)end?

(F#dim7)But then your (G6)letter caught my eye,

brought the (F)hope in me to life,

'cause you (G6)know me very well,

and I (F)bet you wrote me just to tell me:

(C)In a little while we'll be (Am)with the Father.

(Dm7)Can't you see Him (F)smile?

(C)In a little while we'll be (Am)home forever,

(Bb)in a while.

(F)We're just here to (C)learn to love Him,

(Dm)we'll be home in (F)just a little (Abmaj7)while.

(C)Boy, that (C#dim7)letter hit the (Dm)spot,

made me (D#dim7)think of all I've (Em)got and a (Fdim7)all that waits for (Am)me.

(C)Guess I've (C#dim7)known it all day (Dm)long.

Wonder (D#dim7)where my thoughts went (Fdim7)wrong?

When will my heart (Am)believe?

(F#dim7)But Waking (G6)halfway thro' the night,

reaching (F)t'ward the lamp, the light,

picking (G6)up the Word I find here's (F)another letter to remind me:

(C)In a little while we'll be (Am)with the Father.

(Dm7)Can't you see Him (F)smile?

(C)In a little while we'll be (Am)home forever,

(Bb)in a while.

(F)We're just here to (C)learn to love Him,

(Dm)we'll be home in (F)just a little (Abmaj7)while.

(Ab)Days like (Dbmaj7)these are just a (Bb)test of our (C)will.

(Ab)Will we (Dbmaj7)walk or will we (Gm)fall?

(Ab)Well, I can (Dbmaj7)almost see the (Bb)top of the (C)hill,

(Ab)and I (Fm)believe it's worth it (Gsus)all.

(Abmaj7)while.
