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.

Oh 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.

Come home, come home
Ye who are weary, come home.
Earnestly, tenderly Jesus is calling
Calling, oh sinner, come home.
