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 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 mercy

Mercies for you and for me





Come home   Come home

Ye who are weary   Come home

Earnestly   Tenderly   Jesus is calling

Calling   Oh sinner   Come home





Calling   Oh Sinner  Come home
