Londonderry Boys Choir - Softly and Tenderly (Jesus Is Calling)

Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling
Calling for you and for me
Patient and loving, He's waiting and watching
Watching for you and for me

Come home (come home), come home (come home)
You who are weary come home
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling
Calling, O sinner, come home

Why should we linger when Jesus is pleading
Pleading for you and for me?
Why should we wait there and heed not His mercies
Mercies for you and for me?

Come home (come home), come home (come home)
You 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), come home (come home)
You who are weary come home
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling
Calling, O sinner, come home
