## Come, Thou Fount of Ev'ry Blessing

Come, thou fount of ev’ry 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,

wand’ring 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 wand’ring 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.

429 in the [Trinity Psalter-Hymnal](https://www.trinitypsalterhymnal.org/hymns/come-thou-fount-of-every-blessing/)

This has long been one of my favorite hymns and one of the first that I taught my children.
