何等柔細慈愛

一 何等柔細慈愛,耶穌在呼召,

呼召你,也呼召我!

祂在天上等待,也來地尋找,

尋找你,也尋找我!

(副)歸家!歸家!疲乏困倦者,歸家!

何等懇切慈愛,耶穌在呼召,呼召,

哦,罪人,歸家!

二 為何糊塗遲延,不聽祂懇勸,

懇勸你,也懇勸我?

為何躊躇留戀,不理祂恩眷,

恩眷你,也恩眷我?

三 時間急急在逝,機會要越過,

越過你,也越過我;

陰影漸漸在集,死亡要來捉,

來捉你,也來捉我。

四 哦,那奇妙之愛,祂已經應許,

應許你,也應許我;

雖然污穢敗壞,祂仍必憐恤,

憐恤你,也憐恤我。

Softly and Tenderly

1. 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, O sinner, come home!

2. 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?

3. Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing -

Passing from you and from me;

Shadows are gathering, death beds are coming -

Coming for you and for me!

4. 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!
