When we taste our gracious Lord;
Every cup He fills o'erfloweth,
Rich supply He doth afford.
Nothing narrow, nothing stinted,
Ever issued from His store;
To His own He gives full measure,
Running over, evermore,
To His own He gives full measure,
Running over, evermore.
When we, from the Father's hand,
Take our portion with thanksgiving,
Praising for the things He planned.
Satisfaction, full and deepening,
All our need He doth supply,
When the heart has tasted Jesus
Its desires to satisfy,
When the heart has tasted Jesus
Its desires to satisfy.
When we share in all His love;
Unplumbed depths still lie beneath us,
Unscaled heights rise far above.
Human lips can never utter
All His wondrous tenderness.
We can only praise and wonder
And His Name forever bless,
We can only praise and wonder
And His Name forever bless.

Hallelujah there’s always something over to be experienced in Christ.
Stanza one makes me remember the verse, Luke 11:13 “If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him! ”

The term "something over" means overflowing. Even after we are saturated, fully satisfied to overflowing, there is more and more enjoyment in our dear, precious Lord Jesus. This is our experience, time after time and not just empty words! Praise You, Lord! We love You!

DEAR FB, in answer to your question I believe the author was saying that our Lord is more than enough. Whatever our circumstances, there is always a rich supply awaiting us when we contact Him in our spirit. Suddenly we are filled to overflowing and satisfied by His provision.

Something that has puzzled me for some time: what did our sister have in mind when she affirmed (repeatedly) that "there is always something over"?

Wonder upon wonder that the Lord of heaven would bless a poor sinner as I. Over and over my simple needs are met. It is a surprise every time because he does supply me in ways I would never expect. It keeps me close to His side trusting, He being my guide
