Fill all my life, O Lord my God,
in every part with praise;
that my whole being may proclaim
your being and your ways.
2. Not for the lip of praise alone,
nor yet the praising heart,
I ask, but for a life made up
of praise in every part.
3. Praise in the common things of life,
its goings out and in;
praise in each duty and each deed,
exalted or unseen.
4. Fill every part of me with praise;
let all my being speak
of you and of your love, O Lord,
poor though I am and weak.
5. So shall you, Lord, from me receive
the praise and 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, with you my God,
in fellowship shall be.
