LYRICS -- Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing

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
I'll praise the mount I'm fixed upon it
Mount of thy redeeming love

Here I raise my Ebenezer
Hither by thy help I come
And I hope by thy good pleasure
Safely to arrive at home

Jesus sought me when a stranger
Wondering from the fold of God
He, to rescue me from danger
Interposed His precious blood

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
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

LYRICS -- If You Could Hie to Kolob

1. If you could hie to Kolob
In the twinkling of an eye,
And then continue onward
With that same speed to fly,
Do you think that you could ever,
Through all eternity,
Find out the generation
Where Gods began to be?

2. Or see the grand beginning,
Where space did not extend?
Or view the last creation,
Where Gods and matter end?
Methinks the Spirit whispers,
"No man has found 'pure space,'
Nor seen the outside curtains,
Where nothing has a place."

I heard this song at my sons funeral today, it was his favorite song. He was only 43 years old and had 3 miracles in his life. He was 25 when he was given 12 hours to live. After the pastor and I laid hands on him we knew Jesus would let him live. He received a kidney from a living donor in church. He is in the medical journals as the sickest person from kidney failure ever to survive. Never give up on God to bring you up when your down, the church was packed with all the people he touched in his short life. I’m glad this was his favorite song and I’m glad he accepted Christ when I shared the gospel with him. I can’t wait to be in heaven with him and spend eternity with all my brothers and sisters in Christ it’s going to be awesome.😊🙏❤

I’m 13 and I have had a really hard time believing in Jesus. My grandpa recently died and he was my every thing. After he died I hated the church and didn’t believe. I thought that if Jesus loved me he wouldn’t take him away. But after I herd this song I cried . I wanted to thank you so much this song made me believe again and I know you guys are a blessing. Thank you so much

I started drinking when I was 16. I would drink at parties, but I also started drinking alone because I was unhappy, and I was in a lot of emotional pain all the time. My mom was very aggressive when I was younger, and my brother hated her and so did I. He started hanging out with shady people, he started failing all his classes, he was never home, and my parents fought all the time. I also ran away several times. I was always trying to figure out a reason as to why I was here or what the purpose of life was. So, I started looking at different philosophies, religions, and beliefs. When I was 18 after I was hungover, I got on my knees and I prayed for the first time. I asked if God was real that he would show me he was real because I couldn’t take it anymore. I was crying when I prayed for this. At that moment I felt a presence come over me like a wind. It was barely noticeable, but it was unlike anything in my life I had experienced up until that point. I was surprised when I felt it and I remember saying “what was that?” after that experience I pretty much forgot what happened and kept partying, until my senior year when I got arrested. After my arrest, my parents lost all their trust in me and I was expelled from high school. I was told never to come back. At that time, I felt afraid and hopeless. That’s when I started looking for God, and I prayed that he would reveal himself in my life and that he would give me signs. My prayers began getting answered so consistently that I couldn’t deny that God was doing something. It was mysterious and compelling. I ended up in Church and started reading the bible hours a day. I stopped hanging out with all my other friends because they were continually getting arrested. I was able to forgive my family and myself and to ask to be forgiven. I noticed how at Church people were judgmental and how they formed cliques but were afraid to be around anyone else different from them. It increased my faith because I realized Jesus was not like that and ever since I was young, I saw people as people regardless of who they were. After a while, it’s like I could see God's presence was in my life and then it felt like he wasn’t, and then he was, and then he wasn’t. One day I woke up and felt more depressed than I ever have in my entire life. I felt like I was dying on the inside. That night I prayed, and I said, God, I don’t see my life five years from now I'm going to die Jesus save me Lord, please save me. I was weeping when I said it and when I asked him to save me, I felt a presence inside of me like a heartbeat, and I felt it once like a pulse, and I said Lord please save me and I felt it again even stronger. It was like radiance. When I woke up the next morning, I had transformed everything felt brand new like I was a kid again. All my fears and all my racing thoughts everything was gone. I looked at my hands, and I said this can’t be real it’s impossible. When I looked at myself in the mirror, I saw a different person. I started praying, and the holy spirit became entirely real to me it was washing over me and inside of me. It was total love and peace, and I heard a voice but not an audible one, it was an inner voice. It said I am with you; I love you, I will never leave you, it’s done it’s finished. That was May 3rd, 2009, and ever since then I’ve followed God, I have seen many things change and many things I know wouldn’t have changed without faith and belief. I know what it’s like to be lost to feel you have no hope. Don’t ever think you’re stuck, or life can’t change because it can. My mom is a Christian now, Its night and day. Some of the things that went away during that period were severe anxiety and my addiction to alcohol. I’ve seen and experienced so many things that are miraculous and seen how God has worked in my life. When we ask God to forgive us for what we’ve done and turn away from our sins and wrongdoings and we believe in Christ's sacrifice everything changes. His word says if we confess with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in our hearts that he died and rose again we will have eternal life but not just life after death but abundant life in the present. Our sins are erased not only past, present, and future but our burdens and fears are lifted also. Our thoughts, our minds, our hearts, our souls are transformed and united with God and we know his spirit lives in us. If you seek, pray, and knock you will know JESUS IS KING!!! HE LIVES!

These two songs my son used to play on the piano, he passed away from cancer, but while he was going through chemo, and if he had some strength to play the piano, he played it and sounded heavenly! Thank you for posting this video.

Thanking the Lord today for ten months of sobriety. Three weeks ago our 32-year-old neighbor was found dead by his own father. He died from alcoholism. I'm honestly shocked that what happened to this young man didn't happen to me. Thank You Father for giving me a second chance. Amen

[monziedarlin]

I’m an addict.... I’ve been in and out of sobriety... in and out of the LDS religion... my brother asked for one of these songs at his homecoming a few years... right when this came out... me and my mother sang this specific song without him even knowing about it... no matter what you believe in... Devine intervention is real.

[bluie]

My dad passed away a little over just a month ago. This was one of his favorite songs. I know and believe with all my heart and being I will see my dad again and soon in gods timing not mine.

[GoodPraiseSongs]

God bless everyone who listens to read this comment and know that God is really bigger than whatever you are going through.
Thank you for spreading Jesus's love to everyone through worship!😌💕

[zango]

I lost my faith in the LDS church and in god a decade ago but this song is still amazing and something I come back to again and again.

[ilovegoddoyou]

Whoever reading this, God knows what you are facing through, He heard your cry, He is going to deliver you Just trust in him. Amen.💕

[Intolerance]

I attended a funeral today for someone in my ward, and even though these two songs did not get played at all throughout the service, I couldn't help but think of this song. It was shown to me one time during a District Council meeting while serving my mission, and I appreciate this song so much. Thank you all for what you have provided us.

Every time I start slipping in my faith and struggling in this trying life, I listen to this song and their other hymns and I feel the comfort of my savior and the guidance of the Holy Ghost. I’ve always been active in the church but haven’t always appreciated or done as much as I could. A few years back when I first heard this song I was contemplating going inactive. I hadn’t felt close to the gospel and wasn’t really living up to it as much as I could of. After hearing this song, I remembered that I am a child of god and that he loves me no matter my flaws. That he loves me regardless of what sins I have made and no matter how small or big. That he will never forsake me if I don’t forsake him. This song is the reason I stayed active. The reason I chose to go through the temple and take out my own endowments. Because of this song, I was able to renew my faith and work on my personal spiritual experiences and closeness with my savior and Heavenly Father for two years. Those two years were some of the hardest and the best years of my life. After two years of challenges and sacrificing many of the things I used to love more than the gospel (games, movies, tv shows, music, etc.), I was able to go through the temple and take out my own endowments on my birthday in February of this year. One month before COVID caused the temples to shut down.

I wouldn’t return any of the challenges I had getting to this point in my life and in my faith for anything in the world. They are what made me the person I am today. They are what shaped my faith in my savior, in his gospel, and my new perspective on life.

I know that I have been blessed because of my decision to become fully active again and to go through the temple. I have been blessed in more ways than I count and I know it wouldn’t have been the case had I not fully returned to my Heavenly Father, my savior, and their gospel. I know that this church is true and that the gospel is true. I know that with a burning desire and knowledge.

I’m 21 and haven’t shared my testimony since I was 8. I didn’t plan on sharing this much of my testimony but that is what has happened and I know it is something I need to do. Not only for myself but for anyone who reads this and who may need to hear it. I hope that if you are struggling with your faith and your testimony of the church and our savior, that my testimony will help you in whatever capacity that might be . I hope that it gives you hope or reminds you of some of the things I have remembered and learned throughout the past 3 years. I hope it helps you in whatever way you may need help in now. And I hope you all know that you are children of God and that he loves each and every one of you no matter what.

[GeraldDenny]

Praise the Lord of all creation! That was a very innovative arrangement and vocals for that old hymn song. Beautiful message.

[mirandajackson]

Me, my sisters and cousins sang this at my grandpa’s funeral and it really hit the spot

[jayaparimalavirgil]

So blessed by your voices. If you use them for God's glory u might not get as much fame and money as the pop stars of this world but would greatly be rewarded in heaven. But more than that God will use ur voices to touch people's lives and save them through his sacrificial love shown by his son Jesus

[CutoDracon]

I'm not even Christian and this is beautiful.

Im proud to be a part of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

I grew up not having a dad. I was blessed to live with my Grandfather. When I was eight, he passed away. I didn't understand why he had to be taken away from all those who loved him.
I kept going to Church and learning about the plan of salvation. And when I was twelve or thirteen, I had an epiphany--it all became clear to me. And I realized that I would see my Grandfather again. And it wasn't like I "learned" it--but I FELT it. These two wonderful
songs sum up my feelings on earthly life and how it fits in to the whole plan of eternal life. Thank you for sharing your talents and this WONDERFUL music!
