Lyrics
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
Yee who are weary come home
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling
Calling, oh, sinner come home
Why should we teary 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
Yee who are weary come home
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling
Calling, oh, sinner come home
Oh, for the wonderful love he has promised
Promised for you and for me
Though we have sinn'd, he has mercy and pardon
Pardon for you and for me
Come home, come home
Yee who are weary come home
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling
Calling, oh, sinner come home
