Résumé
Can ome, thou of ev'ry blessing is among the v^/ best known and loved hymns in the United States and Canada. Despite its ubiquity, is also one of the most opaque texts employed in modern worship. It contains a never-ceasing stream of divergent images, strange and archaic language, and dense theological terms. And yet, is firequentiy sung across a range of denominations and finds acceptance across the stylistic musical spectrum of the church. Despite its linguistic complexity, was one of the first songs that my young son memorized. When he was just two years old, we heard him sing all three stanzas over the baby monitor from his crib.One explanation for its popularity is the tune is commonly paired with, Nettleton. It is certainly one of the most beautiful and sturdy tunes in our books, but in my opinion the tune itself cannot adequately explain the popularity of the hymn as a whole. In my experience, the thrill of the tune is substantially diminished when is paired with other texts. It fits Come, thou fount like a glove. The phrase Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it is one of the most perfect marriages of thought and melody in our canon. The text itself accounts for much of the hymn's appeal.What, then, does the text mean? A modest survey of hymnals on my shelf finds classified in quite a variety of ways: baptism, confession/repentance, gathering, rejoicing, and more. (Oddly enough, none of the ten hymnals that I examined included in the Pentecost section, which appears to have been the writer's intent.1) Each of these designations make sense depending on which lines and stanzas are considered.The hymn opens with a series of scriptural images and concepts connected by what appears to be a flight of poetic fancy: fount/streams, tune/sing/melodious sonnet, flaming tongues, mount. Had a new writer handed me this text for critique, I would have suggested more focus for this stanza.The second stanza introduces the infamous Ebenezer. It is safe to assume that the average singer mouths those four syllables without much awareness of its Old Testament roots (I Samuel 7:12). fesus sought me while a stranger offers a moment of comprehension, but later in the stanza the term interposed provides another theological head-scratcher.In the third stanza more archaic words flow freely. Then in the latter half of the stanza something startling happens. Having sung twenty lines of fairly dense language, the text suddenly takes a turn towards the simple. The last four lines include only two multisyllabic words: wander and above. While the casual singer might wonder about prone and what means to seal a heart, the overall thrust of the lines is perceptible: though we often wander, we pray that God would make us suitable for heaven.What is that a congregation experiences when singing this text? If the language is obscure and imagery unfocused, what meaning do singers glean? I would argue that the key to understanding its appeal can be summed up in the phrase melodious sonnet. The average singer primarily encounters the hymn not as an in-depth theological narrative of ongoing conversion (although is that), but as poetic and artistic language-a melodious sonnet. Its meaning in practice derives primarily from the beauty of linguistic sound rather than definition. …
