Come Thou Fount #280

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

Hitherto thy love has blest me. Thou has brought me to this

place

And I know thy hand will bring me safely home by thy good

grace

Jesus sought me when a stranger

wandering from the fold of God

He to rescue me from danger bought me with his precious

blood

O to grace how great a debtor daily I'm constrained to be

Let thy goodness as 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

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

Jesus in your name we pray

Come and fill our hearts today

Lord give us strength to live for you and glorify your name

Your name is a strong and mighty tower

'Cause nothing has the power to save

But your name is a strong and mighty

tower

A thousand times I’ve failed still your

mercy remains and should I stumble

again still I’m caught in your grace

Everlasting your light will shine when all

else fadesNever-ending your

glory goes beyond all fame

Your will above all else my purpose

remainsThe art of losing

myself in bringing you praise

Everlasting your light will shine when all



In my heart in my soul

Lord I give you control

Consume me from the inside out Lord

Let justice and praise become my embraceTo love you from the

inside out

Everlasting you light will shine when all



And the cry of my heart is to bring you

praise from the inside out Lord my

soul cries out

Everlasting you light will shine when all



And the cry of my heart is to bring you

praise from the inside out Lord my soul cries out Lord

Acts 8:14-17 (ESV)(14) Now when the apostles at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent to them Peter and John, (15) who came down and prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit, (16) for he had not yet fallen on any of them, but they had only been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. (17) Then they laid their hands on them and they received the Holy Spirit.
