Fill thou our life

Fill thou our life, O Lord our God,

In every part with praise,

That our whole being may proclaim

Thy being and thy ways.

Not for the lip of praise alone,

Nor ev’n the praising heart

We ask, but for a life made up

Of praise in every part.

Praise in the common things of life,

Its goings out and in;

Praise in each duty and each deed,

However small and mean.

So shalt thou, gracious Lord, receive

From us the glory due;

And so shall we begin on earth

The song for ever new.

So shall no part of day or night

From sacredness be free;

But all our life, in every step,

Be fellowship with thee.
