Breathe On me, Breath Of God

"Breathe On me, Breath Of God" is one of the classic hymns we use at Shallowater UMC to worship God.

Quality audio postings of classic hymns in simple, congregational arrangements suitable for learning are notoriously difficult to find in any medium - much less on the internet.

Lyrics:

Breathe On me, Breath Of God

Verse 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

Verse 2

Breathe on me, Breath of God, until my heart is pure
Until, with Thee, i will one will to do & to endure

Verse 3

Breathe on me, Breath of God, 'till i am wholly Thine
'Til all this earthly part of me glows with Thy fire divine

Verse 4

Breathe on me, Breath of God, so shall i never die
But Live with Thee the perfect Life of Thine eternity
