“That they may see your works and glorify your father which is in heavens!” -Matt 5:16
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.
2 Not for the lip of praise alone,
Not e’en the praising heart
I ask, but a life made up
Of praise in every part:
3 Praise in the common things of life,
Its going out and in;
Praise in each duty and each deed
However small and mean.
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.
5 So shalt thou, Lord, from me e’en me,
Receive the glory due,
And so shall I begin on earth
The song for ever new
6 So shall no part of day or night
From sacredness be free;
But all my life, in every step,
Be fellowship with Thee.
