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 Thy redeeming love
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
Jesus sought me when a stranger
Wandering from the fold of God
He to rescue me from danger
Interposed His precious blood 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
Here's my heart
Oh take and seal it
Seal it for Thy courts above
This is one of my favorite hymns because it reminds me even in weakness and desperation, we can come to God, which in reality, is when we are closest to Him. My grandma’s voice is recorded in this so it’s not perfect, and though I know I could just retake it, this is what’s real and knowing it’s not about earthly perfection but Heavenly worship, I post this to even perhaps remind one of you God is still good and very much present in our lives. Yes, we can always go to Him, as He comes to us, and lead us on in the tides of life. Thus Lord, Your Church chooses righteousness and not evil, may we become pure, surrendering to the Love of Christ, not in the perfection of human ideals, but in meekness, gentleness, and in all thanksgiving, with voices of songs of praise, to say and proclaim aloud, “Glory honor and worship to the One Who was and is and is to come!” (in inspiration of Rev 4:8, worship of the four living creatures)
