Softly And Tenderly |
| Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling, |
| Calling for you and for me; |
| See, on the portals He’s waiting and watching, |
| Watching for you and for me. |
| Come home, come home, |
| You who are weary, come home; |
| Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, |
| Calling, O sinner, come home! |
| Why should we tarry when Jesus is pleading, |
| Pleading for you and for me? |
| Why should we linger and heed not His mercies, |
| Mercies for you and for me? |
| Come home, come home, |
| You who are weary, come home; |
| Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, |
| Calling, O sinner, come home! |
| Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing, |
| Passing from you and from me; |
| Shadows are gathering, deathbeds are coming, |
| Coming for you and for me. |
| Come home, come home, |
| You who are weary, come home; |
| Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, |
| Calling, O sinner, come home! |
| O for the wonderful love He has promised, |
| Promised for you and for me! |
| Though we have sinned, He has mercy and pardon, |
| Pardon for you and for me. |
| Come home, come home, |
| You who are weary, come home; |
| Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, |
| Calling, O sinner, come home! |
