New Songs of Praise and Power 1-2-3 Combined ‎#268

268. Beloved, We Are the Sons of God

1 Come, Thou fount of ev’ry blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace,
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for ceaseless songs of praise.

Refrain:
Beloved, beloved, we are the Sons of God,
And it doth not yet appear what we shall be;
But we know that when He shall appear,
But we know that when He shall appear,
We shall be like Him, we shall be like Him, we shall see Him as He is.

2 Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount, I’m fixed upon it!
Mount of Thy redeeming love. [Refrain]

3 Here I’ll raise my Ebenezer,
Hither by Thy help I’ll come;
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home. [Refrain]

4 Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wand’ring from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood. [Refrain]

5 O to grace how great a debtor
Daily I’m constrained to be!
Let Thy goodness, like a fetter,
Bind my wandering heart to Thee. [Refrain]

6 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. [Refrain]
