Christian Lyrics
Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling Lyrics
Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling--
Calling for you and for me;
Patiently Jesus is 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!
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?
Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing--
Passing from you and from me;
Shadows are gathering, death-beds are coming--
Coming for you and for me!
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!
