495. Breathe upon Us

1 Breathe upon us, Lord, from Heaven,
Fill us with the Holy Ghost;
Promise of the Father given,
Send us now a Pentecost.

Refrain:
Breathe upon us, breathe upon us,
With Thy love our hearts inspire;
Breathe upon us, breathe upon us,
Lord, baptize us now with fire.

2 While the Spirit hovers o’er us,
Open all our hearts, we pray;
To Thine image, Lord, restore us,
Witness in our souls today. [Refrain]

3 Lift us, Lord, oh, lift us higher,
From the carnal mind set free;
Fill us with refining fire,
Give us perfect liberty. [Refrain]
