    This was a powerful moment in my life, to be able to sing in this choir. I hope we're able to carry this message with us in our hearts.

    Yesterday, my mom, Sharon Dartt, passed from this life to the next as I held her hand and played this song for her on my phone from her bedside. Thank you for this.

    This is just a foretaste of what a choir in Heaven will look and sound like. Well done young people, God bless you all.

    Why would anyone hear such a wonderful rendition and not wish to be in God's presence...

    For of Him and through Him and to Him are all things, to whom be glory forever. Amen.

    One of the most powerful performances I have ever experienced in person! I thought the roof of the Marriott Center was going to come off. It was truly a choir of angels. What a talented student body BYU has!

  • Jesus is the fount of every blessing. He is the better prophet, priest and King. He is the risen God. Take and drink and never thirst again. Praying for you all. Beautiful performance, may it yield fruit, especially in those performing it.

  • Lyrics: 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 . Prone to wander, Lord I feel it Prone to leave the God I love Here's my heart, oh take and seal it Seal it for Thy courts above . Jesus sought me when a stranger Wandering from the fold of God He to rescue me from danger Interposed His precious blood (Precious blood) . Prone to wander, Lord I feel it Prone to leave the God I love Here's my heart, oh 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 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
