Come Thou Fount Songtext
von Paul Zach

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
