Come, Thou Fount

SATB accompanied and TTBB a capella

Arranged by Craig Petrie

 

An arrangement of a traditional hymn.  The SATB version was originally written to be sung a capella, but piano accompaniment, which largely follows the vocal parts, was added later.  This version can be performed either way.

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; ("Ebenezer" means "stone of help")

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,

Wandering 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 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, O take and seal it,

Seal it for Thy courts above.
