When My Words Have a Meter

The empty spaces that used to be full
I can't ignore this vacancy that pulls
And I fall again to the voice that demands
I stay discontent with the hourglass sands
And time beats slowly on and on
And soon each and every moment is gone

Fill me up, Fill me, Lord, in these empty spaces
Let me be lost in the beauty of Your wondrous graces
Destroy every idol's stronghold in my heart
And if pain's what it takes to tear me apart
Still fill me up

Surely the One who created my being
Searches my heart with eyes that are seeing
And if He claims to know the rest of my story
I'll trust it's for my best and for His own glory

Fill me up, Fill me, Lord, in these empty spaces
Let me be lost in the beauty of Your wondrous graces
Destroy every idol's stronghold in my heart
And if pain's what it takes to tear me apart
Still fill me up
