Ten Thousand Charms 194

Lyrics: Robert Robinson, 1758
Tune: Hal Kunkel, 1996
Meter: 8s, 7s (8,7,8,7)

Come, thou fount of ev'ry blessing,
Tune my heart to sing thy grace;
Streams of mercy never ceasing,
Calls for songs of loudest praise.

Chorus:
I will rise and go to Jesus,
He'll embrace me in his arms;
In the arms of my dear Savior,
Lo! There are ten thousand charms.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount-O fix me on it-
Mount of God's unchanging love.
