Softly and Tenderly / Ashokan Farewell (Medley)
[Verse 1]
Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling
Calling for you and for me
See, on your 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 O sinner come home
[Verse 2]
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 comе home
Earnestly, tendеrly, Jesus is calling
Calling O sinner come home
[Bridge]
Jesus is calling
Ooh
Oh, I hear
I hear His sweet voice
Calling for me
[Verse 3]
Gently He leads those who carry their young ones
Shepherd for you and for me
Surely His goodness and mercy will follow
Ever with you and with me
[Outro]
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling
Calling O sinner come home
Calling O sinner come home
