Manso e Suave

Gentle and soft Jesus, inviting,
He calls for you and for me.
Behold, he waits at the door, watching;
Watching over you and me.

"Come now, come now! Weary soul, come now!"
Gentle and soft Jesus, inviting,
Calls: "The sinner, come!"

What are we waiting for? Jesus, inviting,
Invites you, yes, and me.
Oh, do not despise the mercy he is giving,
Yes, giving to you, giving to me!

The days go by, the hours pass,
Passing by you and me;
Moments of death finally await us,
They come to you as well as me.

Oh, the great love that Jesus has given us,
Given to you, given to me!
He came to save us from such vile sin,
He came for you and for me.
