Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing (Fuente de la vida eterna)

Author: Robert Robinson, 1735-1790; Tomás M. Westrup, 1837-1909 Hymnal: Santo, Santo, Santo #394 (2019) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Scripture: Psalm 119:10 First Line: Come, Thou Fount of ev'ry blessing (Fuente de la vida eterna) Lyrics: 1 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– I'm fixed upon it– Mount of God's unchanging 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 the fold of God; He, to rescue me from danger, Interposed his precious blood. 3 Oh, to grace how great a debtor Daily I'm constrained to be! Let that grace now like a fetter, Bind my wand'ring heart to thee: Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, Prone to leave the God I love; Here's my heart, oh, take and seal it; Seal it for thy courts above. --- 1 Fuente de la vida eterna y de toda bendición, ensalzar tu gracia tierna quiere nuestro corazón. Tu piedad inagotable, abundante en perdonar; único ser adorable, gloria a ti debemos dar. 2 De los cánticos celestes, te quisiéramos cantar, entonados por las huestes que lograste rescatar. Almas que a buscar viniste, porque les tuviste amor, de ellas te compadeciste, con tiernísimo favor. 3 Toma nuestros corazones, llénalos de tu verdad; de tu Espíritu los dones y de toda santidad. Guíanos en obediencia, humildad, amor y fe, nos ampare tu clemencia; Salvador propicio sé.

Instruction from Scripture

Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #212 (1786) Scripture: Psalm 119:9 First Line: How shall the young secure their hearts Lyrics: 1 How shall the young secure their hearts, And guard their lives from sin? Thy word the choicest rules imparts To keep the conscience clean. 2 When once it enters to the mind, It spreads such light abroad, The meanest souls instruction find, And raise their thoughts to God. 3 'Tis like the sun, a heavenly light, That guides us all the day; And through the dangers of the night, A lamp to lead our way. 4 The men that keep thy law with care, And meditate thy word, Grow wiser than their teachers are, And better know the Lord. 5 Thy precepts make me truly wise: I hate the sinner's road; I hate my own vain thoughts that rise, But love thy law, my God. 6 [The starry heavens thy rule obey, The earth maintains her place; And these thy servants night and day Thy skill and power express. 7 But still thy law, and gospel, Lord, Have lessons more divine; Not earth stands firmer than thy word, Nor stars so nobly shine.] 8 Thy word is everlasting truth How pure is every page! That holy book shall guide our youth, And well support our age.
