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

Ye who are weary, come home

Earnestly, tenderly Jesus is calling

Calling, Oh sinners 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

Ye who are weary, come home

Earnestly, tenderly Jesus is calling

Calling, Oh sinners come home.



Come home, come home

Ye who are weary, come home

Earnestly, tenderly Jesus is calling

Calling, Oh sinners come home.



Calling, Oh sinners come home
