Song updated, review now!
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

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

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

VERSE 3
Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing
Passing for you and for me
Shadows are gathering
Death beds are coming
Coming for you and for me

VERSE 4
Oh! for the wonderful love He has promised
Promised for you and for me
Tho' we have sinned
He has mercy and pardon
Pardon for you and for me

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

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