- The popular Hymn "Softly and Tenderly was first self published by Will Thompson in 1880. It became popular fairly fast. Dwight Moody told Will on his deathbed “Will, I would rather have written ‘Softly and Tenderly Jesus Is Calling’ than anything I have been able to do in my whole life.” The song was also used for the Memorial service of Martin Luther King.
Softly And Tenderly
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
Refrain
Come home
Come home
Ye who are weary
Come home
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling
Calling, oh, sinner, come home
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
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
