"Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing"


"Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing" is a Christian hymn written by the 18th century pastor and hymnist Robert Robinson. During this morning's service David (piano), Justin (drums) and I (flute) played this piece during offering.


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.
