Come Thou Fount Of Every Blessing Tab

by Mark Schultz


                       
Come Thou Fount of every blessing,
                        
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
                     
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
                       
Call for songs of loudest praise.
                     
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
                     
Sung by flaming tongues above;
                            
Praise the mount!  I'm fixed upon it,
                    
Mount of Thy redeeming love.

Here I raise my "Ebenezer"
Hither by Thy help I come.
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.

Oh, to grace how great a debtor,
                        
Daily I'm con-strained to be!
                       
Let Thy good ness, like a fetter,
                         
Bind my wand'ring heart to Thee.
                      
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
                             
Prone to leave the God I love;
                               
Here's my heart, Lord, take and seal it,
                      
Seal it for Thy courts a-bove.
