Saggies en inniglik - Clyde Davids (Softly and tenderly)

Composer: Clyde Davids Lyricist: Will L Thompson (1847-1909) Soloist: Morgen Floris Organist: Christopher Sambo STORY BEHIND THE HYMN: “Softly and Tenderly,” which was originally known as “Softly and Tenderly Jesus is Calling,” is a classic invitation hymn from the 19th century. It was written by Will Lamartine Thompson (1847-1909) who was a composer of gospel, secular, and patriotic songs. Due to his earlier songs being rejected, Thompson formed his own music publishing company and “Softly and Tenderly” was first published in a collection titled Sparkling Gems, Nos. 1 and 2. It quickly became a popular hymn and was incorporated into many church hymnals. Thompson was inspired to devote himself to writing while attending a meeting by popular evangelist Dwight L. Moody (1837-1899). When Moody was dying in the hospital he told Thompson, “Will, I would rather have written ‘Softly and Tenderly Jesus Is Calling’ than anything I have been able to do in my whole life.” “Softly and Tenderly” has been recorded by artists such as Amy Grant, Reba McEntire, Trisha Yearwood, Kelly Clarkson, Johnny Cash, and Alan Jackson. The hymn was also used during the memorial service for Martin Luther King Jr. on April 8, 1968. Full Hymn Lyrics (Afrikaans): Saggies en inniglik, hoor hoe roep Jesus, roep Hy na jou en na my. Kyk, voor ons hartsdeur hoe, wag Hy, hoe waak Hy, wag Hy op en my. O kom, alle vermoeides, kom tuis. O kom, alle vermoeides, kom nou na my. Saggies en innerlik, hoor hoe roep Jesus, roep Hy: :O sondaar, kom tuis!” Luister hoe Jesus nou klop aan ons hartsdeur, pleitend tot jou en op my. Waarom nog aarsel, verbeur sy genade, liefde vir jou en vir my? O kom, alle vermoeides, kom tuis. O kom, alle vermoeides, kom nou na my. Saggies en innerlik, hoor hoe roep Jesus, roep Hy: :O sondaar, kom tuis!” Spoeding verby is die tyd van genade, spoedig vir jou en vir my. Skadu’s vergader, die nag has nou nader, nader vir jou en vir my. O kom, alle vermoeides, kom tuis. O kom, alle vermoeides, kom nou na my. Saggies en innerlik, hoor hoe roep Jesus, roep Hy: :O sondaar, kom tuis!” O water wonder van liefde betoon Hy, liefde vir jou en vir my. Vryheid vergun Hy, vergifnis van sonder; Vryheid vir jou en vir. O kom, alle vermoeides, kom tuis. O kom, alle vermoeides, kom nou na my. Saggies en innerlik, hoor hoe roep Jesus, roep Hy: :O sondaar, kom tuis!” #nachymns Full Hymn Lyrics (English): 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; you who are weary, come home; earnestly, tenderly, Jesus is calling, calling, O sinner, come home! Ref: https://hymnary.org/text/softly_and_t...
