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

Here's my heart O take and

As the morning dawns and
evening fades you inspire
songs of grace
That rise from earth to touch
your heart and glorify your
name
Your name is a strong and
mighty tower
Your name is a shelter like no
other
Your name
Let the nations sing it louder
'Cause nothing has the power
to save
But your name
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
Your name is a shelter like no
other
Your name
Let the nations sing it louder
'Cause nothing has the power
to save
But your name is a strong and
mighty tower
Your name is a shelter like no
other
Your name
Let the nations sing it louder
'Cause nothing has the power
to save
But your name

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 fades
Never-ending your glory
goes beyond all fame
Your will above all else my
purpose remains
The art of losing myself in
bringing you praise
Everlasting your light will
shine when all else fades
Never-ending your glory
goes beyond all fame
In my heart in my soul
Lord I give you control
Consume me from the inside
out Lord
Let justice and praise
become my embrace
To love you from the inside
out
Everlasting you light will
shine when all else fades
Never-ending your glory
goes beyond all fame
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 else fades
Never-ending your glory
goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart is to
bring you praise from the
inside out Lord my soul cries
out Lord

(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.
