(Rebecca Lynn Howard)

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,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



Come home,come home

Ye who are weary,come home

Earnestly,tenderly,Jesus is calling

Calling,O sinner,come home



Calling,O sinner,come home
