Wilder Adkins
Softly & Tenderly
[Verse 1: Wilder Adkins]
Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling
Calling for you and for me
See all the portholes
He's waiting and watching
Watching for you and for me

[Chorus: Wilder Adkins]
Come home, come home
Ye who are weary, come home
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling
Calling, O sinner, come home

[Verse 2: Mckenzie Lockhart with Wilder Adkins]
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?

[Chorus: Mckenzie Lockhart with Wilder Adkins]
Come home, come home
Ye who are weary, come home
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling
Calling, O sinner, come home

[Verse 3: Wilder Adkins with Mckenzie Lockhart, Mckenzie Lockhart]
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

[Outro: Mckenzie Lockhart with Wilder Adkins]
Come home, come home
Ye who are weary, come home
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling
Calling, O sinner, come home
Calling, O sinner, come home
