Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴Fill my cup, Lord, I lift it up, Lord
Come and quench this thirsting in my soul
Bread from Heaven, feed me 'til I want no more
Fill my cup, fill it up and make me wholeOverall Meaning

The first line, "Fill my cup, Lord, I lift it up, Lord," is a metaphor for the singer's soul. The singer is asking God to fill their spiritual cup, which is empty and waiting for some nourishment. The line "Come and quench this thirsting in my soul" reinforces this idea of spiritual thirst. The singer is longing for a deeper connection with God and is hoping that God will meet their spiritual needs.

The second line, "Bread from Heaven, feed me 'til I want no more," is a biblical reference to the manna that God sent down to the Israelites in the wilderness. Just as the manna sustained the Israelites, the singer is asking God to sustain them with his spiritual bread. The phrase "feed me 'til I want no more" suggests that the singer is aware of their constant need for spiritual nourishment and is asking God to satisfy that need completely.
