[Come, thou fount of ev'ry blessing]

[_]

The following poem is scored for music in the source text.

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, O fix me on it,
Mount of thy unchanging love.
