Lyrics
Softly and tenderly Jesus is calling
Calling for you and for me
See, on your 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
Oh! For the wonderful love He has promised
Promised for you and for me
Tho’ we have sinned He has mercy and pardon
Pardon 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
Gently He leads those who carry their young ones
Shepherd for you and for me
Surely His goodness and mercy will follow
Ever with you and with me
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling
Calling O sinner come home
Calling O sinner come home
Original song adapted by Kristyn Getty; Ashokan Farewell written by Jay Unger

A lot of people think of their loved ones going to heaven when they listen to this beautiful piece. To me, it reflects how loving and patient God is. To come home is to surrender all of our sins and burdens and rest in the love of Jesus. I pray that everyone lost and alone will find God’s amazing love
I won't lie, as I sang this this morning with my Choir. Sang this right after my mom had passed, I didn't know it just yet that she had. It's killing me but giving me peace all in the same. With what was going on with her health, I kept messing up during rehearsals. Today not a mistake.
God Bless in Jesus Name Amen
This is how I always felt about this song. How you described it
It's definitely an invitation hymn, but it's the last song I played by my Mama's side when I had to leave her for the last time at hospice care. I didn't get to be there with her when she passed away, but I cherish this song and that memory. I'm thankful for a Mama who introduced me to our Savior, and I'm thankful she's with Him though I miss her terribly. My Daddy too though he's been gone a lot longer. Just lost Mama almost a year ago. 😢💔✝️
GLORY TO GOD IN THE HIGHEST OF PRAISE !!!!
My momma went to Heaven 10 years ago today. July 27, 2011. Softly and tenderly, He called her while she was preparing supper in her kitchen. Can't wait to see you again, mom.
My mother went to see Jesus. In 017. One day when my life is over
I hope to see her again.
,, God bless you
The reunion will be heavenly
@@duaneholcomb8408 know that He is real and your hope is real.
❤️
No. They are in grave waiting for the second coming of Jesus
Praise God, we don't have to wait much longer! Jesus is coming soon! Maranatha!
My Mom went to her eternal home 14 years ago, and it feels as if it happened only yesterday. Her best friend was at her side and was singing this song to her when my precious Mother took her last breath on this side of Heaven. I miss her terribly and can't wait to link up with her in Father God's presence in eternity, alongside my loved ones who have also placed their faith and hope in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. God will soon grant us the desire of our hearts to dwell in His house forever, Amen.
My precious wife of almost 20 years went home to the Lord on Sunday night, November 22, 2020. I woke up that same morning hearing this old hymn in my mind---a hymn that I haven't heard since I was a boy in the Presbyterian church. I got up and turned on the tv to a Christian worship channel, and guess what song they were playing at that very moment?
I looked up the song on UA-cam and shared it with my darling wife, and it ministered so much peace to her heart, a peace that was with us all day and into the evening. It really was a divinely orchestrated time of ministry of God's Spirit to our family. I Love you Always, my sweet Roopa.....
So sorry. Yesterday was 2 yrs since my friend of 20 yrs passed a way. God bless
He called my mother home 21 years ago! How miss her!🙏🙏🎶🎶❤❤
I hope some of you listening to this beautiful song realize how close we are to going Home ❤
AMEN
@@abby4-m4pOne day closer❤
Kristyn and Vince's voices blend so perfectly on this hymn. Add the lovely Ashoken Farewell and what a thing of beauty is created! Thank you for this gem!
My mother sang this song many times. Several of those times were at her friends funerals! This hymn is totally about hope in Jesus!
Matthew 11:28-÷30 Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
- Jesus
This piece is so touching. The interlude of 'Ashokan Farewell' seems to convey the Savior's longing for his lost sheep to return to his side.
This is an excellent way to share the Gospel with someone who doesn't know the Savior. The desire of the heart of our Lord Jesus is for us to share with others His Gift of Eternal Life. One of the easiest ways to touch another soul is through music and His Word. May you all be abundantly blessed in the presence of our Lord Jesus. Amen.
I now have the song that will my Journey me to my last resting Place.
Praying for all who don't yet know you, Lord, and especially for friends and family members. Prayer is such a privilege 🙏
One of my favorite hymns. Very emotional for me. ❤️
A very old Hymn Calling A Sinner Come Home ! Soon we will be preparing for the Season of Lent To walk with Jesus to Calvary ! 🙏✝️☦️Thanks &God Bless !
help us to listen to you Lord so we may better do your will Lord
Thank you, guys!
We forget in this crazy world in which we all live that Jesus loves us all - each and every one. And He want nothing more than to be in relationship with you and me. It's on His terms, but what have we to offer that's any better. He loves the world so much that he laid down His life on the cross for our sins that we might live with Him in His HOME for ever and ever. Believe Him, trust Him, and COME HOME.
Softly n tenderly,only HE knows how to get my attention!
A favorite song ever since my days at the Southern Baptist congregation in Charleston, Illinois 1966-1970 I liked the Ashokan Farewell additionl
In 2004 this was one of the songs I chose to say goodbye to my dad. He had only taken Jesus to be his Saviour 34 hours before he was called home 🙏
Wow Gods timing. So sorry for your loss. You will meet him again in a Heaven on that sweet day 🙏🏽❤️
Thank you Jesus for saving my Soul….
This is so soothing. Can't wait to see the one who died and loved me unconditionally. Praise You Wonderful Saviour 🙏🙏❤️
This version is very soothing. We are so blessed to know we have a saviour. Jesus returns soon, but we suffer for our faith in him first. Stay in prayer and repentance. Jesus loves you and will never leave you. He promises in Matthew 24, those who endure to the end, shall be saved. Amen.
Simply beautiful.
This was my late husband's favorite hymn. It was sung at his funeral 9 years ago. This was a real blessing to me. Thank you.
Aw my husband and father both request Ed this hymn for their funerals.So special
And God honoring
It’s such a comforting and sweet reminder of what is really important in these chaotic times that a better life awaits us with our loving Savior!
I’m so sorry for your loss! 💕
ONE OF THE GREATEST HYMNS EVER WRITTEN
@Mary Ann Russell - I'm so sorry for your loss. Soon we will all be reunited with our loved ones who have gone before us. He's going to be coming for us VERY soon! I can hardly wait!
I can't wait to see her again
Beautiful beautiful song!!!!🙏👍❤️👏
Praise God to this wonderful gospel song
Perfect ending song for our sermon at Franklin Christian Church in Franklin NC.
I remember this hymn was sung at a funeral Mass at. St Michael's in Brookyn in 1942. A friend and classmate of mine fell off the back of a moving Ice truck on 46th St and died. The entire class attended his funeral.The only substitute in was "children" come home in place of "sinners" come home .It still lingers........
Amen. Our Father keeps pleading with us to lay our burdens to Him and walk diligently in His love
Beautiful rendition of an old hymn. Thank you. X 🙏
Feeling that it's about time. I've lived my life in love and faith towards others. Feeling that it's time to "go home".Blessings and love going out to everyone. ❤
Gentle and soothing. Thank you; beautiful song.
How merciful is our Lord Jesus Christ to us!! Beautiful hymn!!🤗💞✝️

What beautiful Song i love it. Judy dobbins
Love the Gettys . Hear the Ashokan Farewell there as well. Wonderful🌟🙌
O,my goodness I love. this beautiful and truthful Hymn!!!Thank You, Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior.
Love the mashup with Ashokan Farewell. One of the most beautiful pieces of music written in my opinion.
The Oshokan Farewell blended so well I didn't notice at first. Then it hit me. What a pleasure.
Beautifully song brings back sweet memories ❤❤❤
I love You Lord Jesus Christ
So beautifully written and composed. What peace, joy, and assurance we have in God’s truth. A call from God is surely a call to God.
So peaceful! Listening to this just got my mind wondering. What is it going to be like when we are fully experiencing His presence? Indescribable I know, but just allow yourself to think for a moment. When we see Him in all His glory. The Spirit gives us glimpses and foretaste of things to come by revealing the glory of the Son to us..so we have a faint but true sense of what it may be like though it is at the same time still unimaginable. Yet here I go...just from knowing His peace now through His forgiveness, and reflecting on His truth and comfort of the Holy Spirit..I imagine that perfect peace and a still loving calm will exude from His very being into ours. Wait! This also happens in measure now! He's amazing and I can't help but wonder what the fullness of His presence will be like. Sighs.

I love this song so much. My mom just passed away about a week ago and they played this at her service. Oh how I already miss her after only a week without her. It's going to be a long hard road ahead, but I know I can make it knowing I will see her again someday. God Is Good!🙏♥️

Beautiful.
Invokes such beautiful and poignant memories of my parents, and of a different era. Such a contrast to the filth that surrounds us now.
Wonderful song. So blessed. Thank you for sharing
💕 oh, the love of God!
Amen
Beautiful version - Vince & Kristyn!
Smiles, absolutely beautiful indeed Linda, feels really great listening, how are you doing?
I so remember the Lord calling me back to Him years ago when my son was an infant and we were in NC and I passed a church and it was full and I could so distinctly hear His call on my heart for my son and I to literally come home. We did and it was the best decision I ever made, for both our lives. Please, if you hear or feel the Lord leading you to do something, no matter how hard it might be, I urge you by faith to make that move. He will lead you and hold you the whole way, but you must take that first step.
Smiles, hi Angela
Beautiful and Lovely...
Wow💓💓
Absolutely beautiful!!!
Turn on u tube every morning listening relaxing music. This particular song was playing. Just the music no words beautiful!! Long time since I heard it. So decided to look up hymn with the lyrics. Always and still is a beautiful hymn. The words are so calming.
