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.

Breath on me, Breath of God;

Until my heart is pure,

Until with Thee I will one will,

To do and to endure.

3.

Breath on me, Breath of God;

Till I am wholly Thine,

Until this earthly part of me

Glows with Thy fire divine.

4.

Breath on me, Breath of God;

So that I never die

But live with thee the perfect life

Of Thee eternity.
