| 1. Jesus is tenderly calling you home
Calling today, calling today,
Why from the sunshine
of love will you roam,
Farther and farther away?
Refrain.
Calling today, calling today,
Jesus is calling,
is tenderly calling today.
2. Jesus is calling the weary to rest,
Calling today, calling today,
Bring Him your burden
and you shall be blest;
He will not turn you away.
Refrain.
Calling today, calling today,
Jesus is calling,
is tenderly calling today.
3. Jesus is waiting,
O come to Him now,
Waiting today, waiting today,
Come with your sins,
at His feet lowly bow;
Come, and no longer delay.
Refrain.
Calling today, calling today,
Jesus is calling,
is tenderly calling today.
4. Jesus is pleading,
O list to His voice,
Hear Him today, hear Him today,
They who believe on
His Name shall rejoice;
Quickly arise and away.
Refrain.
Calling today, calling today,
Jesus is calling,
is tenderly calling today.
