I sat next to the ladies section at one of their performances. The unison of their voices was incredible. I grew up with the choir and the tabernacle. It is a very special place to me. I was baptized in the tabernacle. Yes there was a baptistery. I now have stage 4 prostate cancer, so you can imagine my feelings. The Lord directed me to this hymn somehow. He is more than kind to me.
This song is sent to all children who have no " home " ..in their hearts ... May God make a room for them to be healed where they can take their loneyliness.
I needed to hear what you said. I am a sinner and lonely and happened to stumble across this hymn and then your comment. Thank you and praise Fod for His mercies.
This is so beautiful and means so much to me. I love our Savior and am trying so hard to come home. He is helping me so much I am sure he wants me to make it home to him.
Dekuji za Vas,za Vase melodie pro dusi i srdce.Jste v dnesni dobe neuveritelni, nadherne svi, vnasite krasno a klid amir do nasich rozjitrenych dusi. Z celeho srdce dekuji a skladam Vam svuj veliky dik.
Death comes as a friend, they say. And as I get older, I can clearly see this to be true. This song and heavenly choir singing further enlightens this glorious reality. Even with all the pandemics deaths, let us remember that release from all bodily struggles and cares is a totally blissful, wondrous experience.
Whoever did the orchestration for this piece deserves only the highest praise from man and the richest blessings from our Lord! Such subtle beauty and glorious harmonies! Thank you, thank you!
This takes me back to my childhood as it was one of my Mother's favourtes, she passed away in 1983 but even now at the age of 72 years I can still hear her singing it. David.......Scotland
“May that be the desire of our hearts, to lead some soul out of darkness to the light, out of bondage to liberty, to lead some poor wanderer out of the darkness of this world to the blessed Gospel. Amen.” (DL Moody)
Softly and Tenderly Lyrics (as performed by The Tabernacle Choir) 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. Come home, come home, Ye who are weary, come home; Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, Calling, O 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? Come home, come home, Ye who are weary, come home; Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, Calling, O sinner, come home! 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. Come home, come home, Ye who are weary, come home; Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, Calling, O sinner, come home! Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, Calling, O sinner, come home, come home, come home, Come home!

Am imagining All Gods Angels in the Dimension they inhabit Singing To Their God: Resonating the Love HE has poured into each. I am imagining - one day - if God Wills it- to be “ part of their number “ singing too. The most poignant choir in The World. Thank you to those people who on occasions - write out the Lyrics.❣️ God Bless

I heard this song along time ago and I've been wanting to hear it again, but didn't know the name of it. I called it "Come Home and not Softly and Tenderly." Now that I've heard it again, it shall always be my favorite hymns. Thanks Tabernacle Choir!
I first heard this song (though not this version) in the 1985 movie 'The Trip to Bountiful.' I watched it on a visit to my grandma's house, and I've loved it ever since.
Yes, I remember this hymn in the movie The Trip to Bountiful" too. Geraldine Page won an Oscar for her role in this movie. I remember this hymn growing up in the Baptist Church.
a week ago right before this video was posted i was asking myself if i would ever see the tabernacle choir singing this again and voila here it is. Amazing as always

Took me from the fear away,
When I listen to this song my heart was bleeding, the spirit that follow this song is in deed the spirit of God
“Peace I leave with you, my peace I give to you.”
- Jesus (John 14:27)
...not as the world giveth
When didst thou doubt
Behold, I stand at the door and knock....
Yes! His peace is the kind of peace no one understands unless they know The Lord.
I love David's voice. It's so pure and genuine. ❤
I grew up in the Methodist Church and this was by far my favorite Hymn. This one and "In The Garden"
Les chants de l église de Jésus Christ apportent. La paix la joie merci au nom de Jésus Christ des saints des derniers jours 🌹💐🍀
I love these Hymns. "In the Garden" was my dear mothers favorite. I can hear her singing it now!
My mother is dying, and all I can think of is this song.
Hope you found console herein. 💐
A wonderful, peaceful and comforting invitation from a loving, caring and forgiving Father in Heaven to us all.
Thank you for this. Such beauty and comfort and peace.
One hymn that is very sadly not sung often enough. Beautiful arrangement.

Softly and Tenderly Lyrics (as performed by The Tabernacle Choir)
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.
Come home, come home,
Ye who are weary, come home;
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling, O 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?
Come home, come home,
Ye who are weary, come home;
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling, O sinner, come home!
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.
Come home, come home,
Ye who are weary, come home;
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling, O sinner, come home!
Earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling,
Calling, O sinner, come home, come home, come home,
Come home!
Thank you for sharing the lyrics 🧡

They sang with their souls more than with their voices!
one of the songs at my sons memorial service. a lovely hymn no matter what church you feel close to.
+Susan L Hi Susan, it is just beautiful and calming. And I am curious because I am a parent and wonder how you lost your son, through illness?
I love the way this song speaks to me.
I have learnt how to sing from you.
Regards from Uganda
Like a host of Angels singing. Heavenly!!
I want to play hymns in my house whenever things get chaotic. I wonder if that would help.
Thankful I am that He is ever calling for me and my loved ones.
So very beautiful and peaceful.
An Expression of Solidarity and Peace Through Prayer and Music .🎶🎼✨🥰🙁❤
We performed this at my mother's funeral. It always had special meaning to her, which pertained to a story about her infant son dying.
Beautiful and echoing melody love it.
I have been strengthened and guided by this hymn in an amazing way!
Have loved the Tabernacle Choir since I first heard them on the radio in the 1960's - lifts one's soul from our daily grind
Am imagining All Gods Angels in the Dimension they inhabit Singing To Their God:
Resonating the Love HE has poured into each.
I am imagining - one day - if God Wills it- to be “ part of their number “ singing too.
The most poignant choir in The World.
Thank you to those people who on occasions - write out the Lyrics.❣️
God Bless
An awsome piece of music ! HOW I WISH THE MUSIC WOULD TAKE ME HOME WHERE I BELONG WITH THOSE WHO HAVE COME HOME!
Wonderful words. The Saviour is the greatest!
Softly and tenderly..Oh Heavenly Father, I hear you.
A piece of song melting the heart. I love this song
Our Lord calls to each and every one of us to 'Come Home' to be in the light, through his love for us all. Amen. ' God Guard Thee'
This song was in my church hymnal as a child, but believe me our version paled by comparison to this magnificent rendition.
love the scene near the beginning with the bird in the background.
Love the hymn. Nice rendition, too.
Why should we tarry when Jesus is pleading for you and me.....
