    Lyrics

    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 God's unchanging love!

    Here I raise my Ebenezer; Hither by Thy help I'm 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, O take and seal it, Seal it for Thy courts above.
