Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
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
REFRAIN
Come home, come home
Ye who are weary come home
Earnestly tenderly Jesus is calling
Calling O Sinner come home
VERSE 2
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
VERSE 3
Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing
Passing from you and for me;
Shadows are gathering, deathbeds are coming
Coming for you and for me.
VERSE 4
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
