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? |
|
Come home! Come home! Ye who are weary, come home! Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, Calling, O sinner, come home! |

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! |
|
Come home! Come home! Ye who are weary, come home! Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, Calling, O 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, O sinner, come home! |
