261. Fill Me Now

1 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.

Refrain:
Fill me now, fill me now,
Jesus, come and fill me now;
Fill me with Thy hallowed presence -
Come, O come and fill me now.

2 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. [Refrain]

3 I am weakness, full of weakness,
At Thy sacred feet I bow;
Blest, divine, eternal Spirit,
Fill with pow’r, and fill me now. [Refrain]

4 Cleanse and comfort, bless and save me,
Bathe, O bathe my heart and brow;
Thou art comforting and saving,
Thou art sweetly filling now. [Refrain]
