Now we'd like to settle things down just a bit
And sing one of favorite sacred songs
Tonight I've chosen one that's long been a favorite of mine
And I hope it's one of your favorites
Softly and tenderly

Softly and tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling for you and for me
See on the portal
He's watching and waiting
Waitin' for you and for me

Come home
Come ho-ome
He who are wary
Come ho-ome
Ernestly, tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling, oh sinner
Come home

Come home
Come ho-ome
He who are wary
Come ho-o-ome
Ernestly, tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling, oh sinner
Come home
