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

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.

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