LYRICS OF VERSION FROM AMY GRANT'S "LEGACY...HYMNS & FAITH" ALBUM: Softly and tenderly, Jesus is calling Calling for you and for me See on the portals, 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 "O'sinner come home" Why should we linger 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 Ye who are weary come home Earnestly, tenderly Jesus is calling Calling "O'sinner come home" LYRICS OF VERSION FROM REBECCA LYNN HOWARD'S "FORGIVE" ALBUM: Softly and tenderly, Jesus is calling Calling for you and for me See, on the portals He's waiting and watching Watching for you and for me Chorus: Come home, come home Ye who are weary, come home Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling Calling, O sinner, come home 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 (Repeat Chorus) Calling, O sinner, come home
