Softly and Tenderly

Softly & Tenderly Jesus is Calling – Melody (Isaac)
Softly and Tenderly Jesus is Calling – Alto Part

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? (Refrain)
3 Time is now fleeting, the moments are passing, passing from you and from me; shadows are gathering, deathbeds are coming, coming for you and for me. (Refrain)
4 O 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. (Refrain)

Holy, Holy, Holy

1 Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty! Early in the morning our song shall rise to thee. Holy, holy, holy! Merciful and mighty, G-d in three persons, blessed Trinity!
2 Holy, holy, holy! All the saints adore thee, casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea; cherubim and seraphim falling down before thee, which wert, and art, and evermore shalt be.
3 Holy, holy, holy! Though the darkness hide thee, though the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see, only thou art holy; there is none beside thee, perfect in power, in love and purity.

Stand By Me (UMH 512)

1 When the storms of life are raging, stand by me; when the storms of life are raging, stand by me; when the world is tossing me like a ship upon the sea, thou who rulest wind and water, stand by me.
2 In the midst of tribulation, stand by me; in the midst of tribulation, stand by me; when the hosts of hell assail, and my strength begins to fail, thou who never lost a battle, stand by me.
3 In the midst of faults and failures, stand by me; in the midst of faults and failures, stand by me; when I do the best I can, and my friends misunderstand, thou who knowest all about me, stand by me.
