with its crystal tide forever
flowing by the throne of God?

gather with the saints at the river
that flows by the throne of God.

washing up its silver spray,
we will walk and worship ever,
all the happy golden day. [Refrain]

lay we ev'ry burden down;

and provide a robe and crown. [Refrain]

soon our pilgrimage will cease;
soon our happy hearts will quiver
with the melody of peace. [Refrain] Used With Tune: HANSON PLACE

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
Author: Robert Robinson Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2,202 hymnals Topics: Baptism Lyrics: 1 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 God’s unchanging love!
2 Here I raise my Ebenezer;
hither by thy help I’m come;
and I hope, by thy good pleasure,
safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
wandering from the fold of God;
he, to rescue me from danger,
interposed his precious blood.
3 O to grace how great a debtor
daily I’m constrained to be!
Let that grace now, like 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.

be thou mine inheritance now and always;
be thou and thou only the first in my heart;
O Sovereign of heaven, my treasure thou art.

Shall never lose its pow'r,

Be saved to sin no more.

Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme

And shall be till I die. Scripture: Luke 23:40-43 Used With Tune: CLEANSING FOUNTAIN
