<lyrics>[V1]
 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.

[C1]
   CHORUS
   Come home, come home,
   Ye who are weary, come home;
   Earnestly, tenderly,
   Jesus is calling,
   Calling, O sinner, come home!

[V2]
 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?

[V3]
 Time is now fleeting,
 The moments are passing,
 Passing from you and from me;
 Shadows are gathering,
 Deathbeds are coming,
 Coming for you and for me.

[V4]
 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.</lyrics>
