The Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Orchestra at Temple Square perform "Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing," a popular song for Choir performances and tours. Arranged by Mack Wilberg.
Lyrics:
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 thy redeeming love.
Here I raise my Ebenezer,
Hither by thy help I'm come;
And I hope, by thy good pleasure,
safely to arrive at home.
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.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
wand'ring from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed his precious blood.
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.
O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be!
Let thy goodness, 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, O take and seal it,
Seal it for thy courts above,
Seal it for thy courts above.

I'm a Muslim yet I have always found church sermons to be very angelic and soothing. I'm a big fan of your work, Mormon Tabernacle Choir. Thank you for your gift to humanity.

I'm Independent Fundamental Baptist and I often dream of singing in an enormous choir like this one. This can be considered a tiny taste of what's to come one day in Heaven for those who have trusted in Christ!

I'm a Catholic & in my childhood years (80 yrs) ago I can still hear the beautiful voices of the nuns, my teachers. The Tabernackle Choir beautiful & wonderful to listen to. Thank you. I wish the said Choir's music could be played over the air on our radios and or one of our TV channels. It would make life worth while & something to look forward to hearing.

I am a Mormon who struggles with mental illness. Whenever I feel as if I may lose it or just want to scream, songs like this one- especially this one, as it is my favorite- calm me down and help me breathe again. A good cry, a reminder that I am loved and back to dealing with life and motherhood!
-
This is possibly the most gorgeous rendition of this hymn ever created
-
6 months after I lost my son this song still gives me peace whenever I feel depressed
-
Hey, let's not forget how incredible the orchestra was. They were less of an accompaniment to the choir and more a duet partner. Absolutely beautiful!
-
I was raised as a Catholic yet the music of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir was heard throughout the year at our home. No other choir moves me quite like this one. I cannot count the number of times I have clicked on the timeless music of this choir and have found myself in tears == as I am right now. There is a deep and abiding spirituality at work in the way that this choir touches hearts and souls.

I am 84 now. A member for 52 years and my wife and I have been married 65 years. She is an invalid in the nursing home for 7-1/2 years with Alzheimer's disease, has to be fed poured food , we were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple in 1972. What a joy it is to know our Savior Jesus Christ and be a member of His Restored Church with the Fullness of the Gospel. I tell her daily that we will be together forever.
-
The best version I have ever heard of this song. Sounds like a piece of heaven...

In my humble opinion, this is the BEST choir in the WORLD!!!!!

I was raised a Jehovah’s Witness and I think this is so pure and beautiful, we all serve the same God and this really makes me feel more connected with those who share this faith
-
I would become a Mormon just to be part of this wonderful ensemble !

Doesn’t matter how dark or deep the spiritual hole I’m in, this song, sung this way by our Tabernacle Choir, always gets me out! I’m so grateful!

I've sung the Alto part for this hymn. What a spine tingling experience it was.
