Hymn 192 - Fill Thou My Life

Horatius Bonar

6 Verses Fellowship With God

Verse 1

Fill thou my life, O Lord my God, In every part with praise, That my whole being may proclaim Thy being and Thy ways.

Verse 2

Not for the lip of praise alone, Nor e’en the praising heart I ask, but for a life made up Of praise in every part:

Verse 3

Praise in the common things of life, Its goings out and in; Praise in each duty and each deed, However small and mean.

Verse 4

Fill every part of me with praise; Let all my being speak Of Thee and of Thy love, O Lord, Poor though I be and weak.

Verse 5

So shall Thou, gracious Lord, from me Receive the glory due; And so shall I begin on earth The song forever new.

Verse 6

So shall no part of day or night From sacredness be free; But all my life, in every step, Be fellowship with Thee.
