Sacred Hymns (Nauvoo Hymnal) (1841), no. 76
Come thou fount of ev’ry blessing

1. 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 fix’d upon it— Mount of thy redeeming love!

2. Here I’ll 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, Interpos’d his precious blood!

3. Oh! to grace how great a debtor Daily I’m constrain’d to be! Let thy goodness, 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.
