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