Come Thou Fount
Chris Tomlin Lyrics

Come thou fount of every blessing
Please join me and let us come together to worship and receive every blessing from you, God.

Tune my heart to sing Thy grace
Please align my heart in harmony to sing and express gratitude for your amazing grace.

Streams of mercy never ceasing
Your never-ending mercy flows abundantly, providing constant love and forgiveness.

Call for songs of loudest praise
Such generosity and grace deserve songs of the highest volume and praise.

And teach me some melodious sonnet
Guide me to learn and sing beautiful and meaningful songs of praise to you.

Sung by flaming tongues above
Songs that are sung even by heavenly beings with fervor and passion.

I'll praise the Mount, I'm fixed upon it
I will worship and honor the place where you showed your redeeming love, with unwavering devotion.

Mount of Thy redeeming love
The mount symbolizes the location where your love saved and redeemed me.

Here I raise my Ebenezer
Here, I lift up my symbolic stone of remembrance, acknowledging your help in bringing me here.

Hither by Thy help I come
Because of your assistance, I have arrived at this point in my journey.

Oh, and I hope by Thy good pleasure
With your loving favor, I anticipate and trust that you will guide and protect me.

Safely to arrive at home
May I reach my eternal home, guarded and secured by your care.

Oh Jesus, sought me when a stranger
You, Jesus, pursued me even when I was lost and far from your flock.

Wondering from the fold of God
I strayed away from your protection and loving presence.

For He, to rescue me from danger
But you, in your compassion, saved me from harm and delivered me from danger.

Interposed His precious blood
You acted as a mediator by offering your precious blood to bridge the gap between me and God.

So to grace, how great a debtor
I owe so much to your grace, and I am forever indebted to its immeasurable greatness.

Daily I'm constrained to be
Every day, I am compelled and obligated to live in response to your grace.

And let Thy goodness like a fetter
May your goodness act as a chain, binding and restraining my wandering heart.

Bind my wandering heart to Thee
Take my easily distracted heart and secure it tightly to your loving presence.

I'm prone to wander, Lord, I feel it
I acknowledge that I have a tendency to stray from you, Lord, and I can sense it.

Prone to leave the God I love
I am inclined to abandon the God I deeply love and cherish.

But here's my heart, Lord, take and seal it
In spite of my inclination to wander, I surrender my heart to you and ask you to secure it.

Seal it for Thy courts above
Seal my heart so that it may be welcomed and dedicated for your heavenly courts, reserved for worshiping you.

But here's my heart, Lord, take and seal it
Once again, I offer my heart to you, Lord, asking for your protection and sealing.

Seal it for Thy courts above, hey, hey!
Secure my heart specifically for your celestial dwellings, emphasizing the importance of this request.
