O to grace how great a debtor
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 wander, Lord, I feel it;
Prone to leave the God I love:

May I walk on earth a stranger,
As a son and heir of God.

I too have had the words “and thy Goodness like a fetter binds my wandering heart to Thee..... ” dancing in my mind from last night , through the night, now into mid morning. God is speaking to me and my listening has been reawakened because I am focusing . At a women’s retreat of 145 women for the weekend. What a free place and time to “listen”. Thank you for the words and writer of this old hymn and for the urging of God for me to return to a more disciplined God centered life.
Cape Town, Western Cape, South Africa
Amen. Oh to Grace how Grace a fetter.....
What a fount of Blessing, Tune my heart to sing Thy Grace!!
Burnley, Lancashire, United Kingdom
Just woke up at 2 am with this hymn on my mind. How it cuts through all the baggage of life and draws us to the fountain of life.
I must have learned this hymn as a child in church and it's rooted in my soul. What a great heritage we have in such beautiful spiritual poetry.
He to rescue me from dander,
Interposed His Precious Blood.
Thank you Lord Jesus.
San Fernando, Trinidad & Tobago, Trinidad And Tobago
Such a beautiful hymn for the Church. Personally, Prone to wander” There is the tendency to stray at times - but you feel it. Thank God for His amazing Grace that draws us back to Him.
Sussex, United Kingdom
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above.
I love it!
Detroit, Michigan, United States
Original lyrics by Robinson from CyberHymnal:
1. 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.
----------------------------
2. Sorrowing I shall be in spirit,
Till released from flesh and sin,
Yet from what I do inherit,
Here Thy praises I'll begin;
Here I raise my Ebenezer;
Here by Thy great help I’ve come;
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
-------------------------
3. Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wandering from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood;
How His kindness yet pursues me
Mortal tongue can never tell,
Clothed in flesh, till death shall loose me
I cannot proclaim it well.
------------------------------
4. O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I’m constrained to be!
Let Thy goodness, 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, O take and seal it,
Seal it for Thy courts above.
----------------------------
5. O that day when freed from sinning,
I shall see Thy lovely face;
Clothèd then in blood washed linen
How I’ll sing Thy sovereign grace;
Come, my Lord, no longer tarry,
Take my ransomed soul away;
Send thine angels now to carry
Me to realms of endless day.
Warri, Delta, Nigeria
So much soul touching hymn I can't do without hymn.
Osogbo, Osun State, Nigeria
Very lovely hymn
Austin, TX, United States
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.
Alsip, IL, United States
Take my heart, oh, take & seal it
With Thy Spirit from above
