Softly And Tenderly
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling calling for you and for me
See on the portal he's 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 oh sinner come home
[ piano ]
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...
