Lord Revive Us (Holy Manna) 59t

Tune: William Moore, 1825
Lyrics: Robert Robinson, 1758
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,
Call for songs of loudest praise;

Chorus:

Lord, revive us, O revive us,
All our help must come from Thee.

Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount—O fix me on it—
Mount of God’s unchanging love.

(Chorus)

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.

(Chorus)
