Fill Me Up Holy Spirit

Fill Me UP Holy Spirit

This song speaks of the journey we all travel.  That journey is our lives.  Just three weeks
after my mother died in 2000, I had a dream.  In my dream, one of the young teachers whose class
I visited, came to me with a folder in her hand.  She showed me the folder and asked, "Marian,
what can we do with this?"  I looked at the folder and noticed the words printed on the spine.
'Fill Me Up Holy Spirit'  I returned my gaze to the young teacher and said, "That's easy! We'll
just put it to the tune of 'She'll Be Comin' 'Round the Mountain.'"  Then I woke up and there
was a song ready to be written. This song is also found on "Season of Song."
