51. Oh, thou fount

1 Oh, 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 ever to adore Thee,
May I still Thy goodness prove,
While the hopes of endless glory
Fills my heart with joy and love.

2 Here I raise my Ebenezer,
Hither by Thy help I’ve come,
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wand'ring from Thy fold of God!
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.
