Fill Me Now
Elwood R. Stokes 1815 - 1895
"And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;" -Ephesians 5:18
Hover o'er me, Holy Spirit
Bathe my trembling heart and brow;
Fill me with Thy hallow'd presence,
Come, O come and fill me now.Chorus: Fill me now, fill me now,
Jesus, come and fill me now;
Fill me with Thy hallow'd presence -
Come, O come and fill me now.Thou canst fill me, gracious Spirit,
Tho I cannot tell Thee how;
But I need Thee, greatly need Thee,
Come, O come and fill me now.Chorus: Fill me now, fill me now,
Jesus, come and fill me now;
Fill me with Thy hallow'd presence -
Come, O come and fill me now.I am weakness, full of weakness,
At Thy sacred feet I bow;
Blest, divine, eternal Spirit,
Fill with pow'r, and fill me now.Chorus: Fill me now, fill me now,
Jesus, come and fill me now;
Fill me with Thy hallow'd presence -
Come, O come and fill me now.Cleanse and comfort, bless and save me,
Bathe, O bathe my heart and brow;
Thou art comforting and saving,
Thou art sweetly filling now.Chorus: Fill me now, fill me now,
Jesus, come and fill me now;
Fill me with Thy hallow'd presence -
Come, O come and fill me now.
