I read the words to this Hymn and I was so blessed that I thought I'd share. I hope it encourages you in your walk with the LORD as it did me. We have been asking the Lord to fill our mouths with praise and laughter even in situations that seem difficult for it is so easy to give praise when everything goes my way but oh how different it can be when they do not. As I ponder over the last few years I can definitely see how God is teaching me this very truth.
HYMN: FILL THOU MY LIFE
Fill Thou my life, O Lord my God,
In every part with praise,
That my whole being may proclaim
Thy being and Thy ways.
Not for the lip of praise alone,
Nor e'en the praising heart,
I 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.
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.
So shall no part of day or night
From sacredness be free,
But all my life, in every step,
Be fellowship with Thee.
