Come, Thou Fount of every blessing
- Come, Thou Fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wand'ring from the face of God;
He, to save my soul from danger,
Interposed His precious blood. - O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be!
Let that grace, Lord, like a fetter,
Bind my wand'ring heart to Thee.
Teach me, Lord, some rapturous measure,
Meet for me Thy grace to prove,
While I sing the countless treasure
Of my God's unchanging love. - Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it;
Prone to leave the God I love:
Take my heart, oh, take and seal it
With Thy Spirit from above.
Rescued thus from sin and danger,
Purchased by the Savior's blood,
May I walk on earth a stranger,
As a son and heir of God.

Mar. 18, 2011Jerri CorneliusMountain Top, PA, United StatesMany thanks to David Jones from the United Kingdom, These are the words my friend and I remember only we could only recall the last four lines of the second verse. God has blessed us both with this hymn. Thanks be to HIM.
Sept. 19, 2010EBBarbadosI first heard this song as part of a 3 CD set of '100 Best Love Hymns'. After playing the CD over and over, the song caught my attention and I was drawn to its melody and certain words I was able to make out. Wanting to find out more, I went on the net to research its lyrics and found your site. This song is truly beautiful. This was since last year. Yesterday (18 Sept 2010), I heard it in my spirit, click on the bookmark and listen to it again as the song minister to me once more and brought tears to my eyes.
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and tommorrow. Praise His holy name!
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so.

Apr. 18, 2010David JonesUnited KingdomI love this song.
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 unchanging love
Here I raise my Ebenezer
Here there by Thy great help I've 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
O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be
Let that grace now, like a fetter
Bind my wandering heart to Thee
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it
Prone to leave the God I love
Here's my heart, oh, take and seal it
Seal it for Thy courts above
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 unchanging love
