O Breathe on Me, O Breath of God

1. O breathe on me, O breath of God,

fill me with life anew that I may love

the things You love, and do what you would do.

2. O breathe on me, O breath of God,

until my heart is pure;

until my will is one with Yours,

to do and to endure.

3. O breathe on me, O breath of God,

my will to Yours incline,

until this selfish part of me

glows with Your fire divine.

4. O breathe on me, O breath of God,

so I shall never die,

but live with You the perfect lifefor all eternity.
