Misc Praise Songs – Fill Thou My Life (Guitar)

     G       D       Am       Em      C     D         G
Fill Thou my life, O Lord, my God, in every part with praise,

     G        D     Am     Em        C     D       G
That my whole being may proclaim Thy being and Thy ways.

    Am             Em                C                 D
Not for the lip of praise alone, nor e’en the praising heart,

  G        D     Am        Em    C         D     G
I ask, but for a life made up of praise in every part.

       G      D      Am        Em          C      D         G
Praise in the common words I speak, life's common looks and tones,

   G     D       Am        Em       C    D         G
in fellowship at hearth or board with my beloved ones,

  Am               Em                  C                   D
Enduring wrong, reproach, or loss with sweet and steadfast will,

    G      D        Am        Em      C       D        G
Loving and blessing those who hate, returning good for ill.

   G          D          Am         Em       C        D    G
So shall each fear, each fret, each care, be turned into a song

    G     D       Am     Em      C    D     G
And every winding of the way the echo shall prolong

   Am               Em                C             D
So shall no part of day or night from sacredness be free,

    G      D        Am    Em       C     D         G
But all my life, in every step, be fellowship with Thee.
