¶Lyrics / Text

1. O breathe on me, Thou Breath of God, Fill me with life anew, That I may love what Thou dost love, And do what Thou wouldst do. 2. O breathe on me, Thou Breath of God, Until my heart is pure, Until with Thee I have one will, To do and to endure. 3. O breathe on me, Thou Breath of God, Blend all my soul with Thine. Until this earthly part of me Glows with Thy fire divine. 4. O breathe on me, Thou Breath of God, So shall I never die, But live with Thee the perfect life of Thine eternity.
