 E             E A/E E  B
Hover o'er me, Holy Spirit,
 E             A    E         B
Bathe my trembling heart and brow;
 E                E   A/E  E   B
Fill me with Thy hallow'd presence,
 E       A        B       E
Come, O come and fill me now.

chorus:
   B             E
  Fill me now!  Fill me now!
   A      E        A       B
  Jesus, come and fill me now;
   E                E   A/E  E   B/E
  Fill me with Thy hallowed presence--
   E       A        B       E
  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)

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)

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)
