Softly
and Tenderly, Jesus is Calling
Jesus is not going to force us to do anything. He has
always given us a choice. He stands willing and ready to accept you as one of
His own. He calls us softly and tenderly. He does not demand us to follow Him.
Time is getting short though and we must decide now and forever if we are going
to serve Him or serve our self. The choice is ours. He is pleading with you
that you don’t wait too long.
Lyrics by Will L. Thompson, arranged by Will L. Thompson
“Softly and tenderly, Jesus is calling, calling for you
and for me; See, on the portals He’s watching and waiting, watching for you and
for me.
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?
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.
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.
Come home, come home, you who are weary, come home;
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, calling, O sinner, come home!
