D                    G         D 
Softly and tenderly, Jesus is calling

Calling for you and for me 
D                        G           D
See, on the portals he's waiting and watching 
D            A           D 
Watching for you and for me.

Ye who are weary, come home

Why must we tarry, while Jesus is bleeding 
Bleeding for you and for me 
Oh for the wonderful love he has mercy 
Mercy for you and for me

O 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
