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.

[Chorus:]

Come home

come home

Ye 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.

[Repeat Chorus]
