Lyrics:

Verse 1 (sung at the beginning)

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

Verse 2 (sung at the end)

Here I raise to thee an altar [my ebenezer]

Hither by thy 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

Verse 3

Oh, 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, oh, take and seal it

Seal it for thy courts above

Amen
