Lyrics:
Every Blessing Tennessee
V1
Tray tables up
wheels coming down
I'm filling up my soul
with all this green
Tennessee river
shining like silver
singing come on back to me
Oh me and this guitar
have gone so far
By your help alone
Lord I'm coming home
Chorus
Oh I am prone to wander
To leave the place
I was meant to be
I find my every blessing
every blessing Tennessee
V2
Mighty mountain
Misty morning
where I found God
waiting for me
all my loves
are in this valley
home and church and family
when I'm called away
Lord remind me every day
You gave me this stage
to sing Your praise
Chorus
Bridge
Come thou font 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
Praise the mount
I'm fixed upon it
Mount of God's redeeming love
Chorus
