Softly And Tenderly (Will Thompson 1880)

Intro: A

A                    D        A
Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling,
                        E
Calling for you and for me
A                         D          A
See, on the portals, He's waiting and watching,
              E          A
Watching for you and for me.

Chorus
      E          A
Come home, come home,
B                       E
Ye who are weary, come home!
A                      D        A
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
             E           A
Calling, O sinner, come home!

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.

Repeat Chorus

Instrumental: A-D-A-E-A
