Celebrating Grace Hymnal ‎#235

235. Breathe on Me, Breath of God

1 Breathe on me, Breath of God,
fill me with life anew,
that I may love what Thou dost love,
and do what Thou wouldst do.

2 Breathe on me, Breath of God,
until my heart is pure,
until with Thee I will Thy will,
to do and to endure.

3 Breathe on me, Breath of God,
till I am wholly Thine,
until this earthly part of me
glows with Thy fire divine.

4 Breathe on me, Breath of God,
so shall I never die,
but live with Thee the perfect life
of Thine eternity.
