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, all 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 wary, come home Earnestly, tenderly Jesus is calling Calling, all sinners come home Calling, all sinners come home
