Breathe on Me, Breath of God


Week 4 – PRAYER 

Breathe on Me, Breath of God

– Edwin Hatch (hymn; 1878)

 

“And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever—the Spirit of truth…” – John 17:16-17a (NIV, 1984)

 

“…Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name—the name you gave me—so that they may be one as we are one.” – John 17:11b (NIV, 1984)

 

Breathe on me, Breath of God,
fill me with life anew,
that I may love the way you love,
and do what you would do.

Breathe on me, Breath of God,
until my heart is pure,
until my will is one with yours,
to do and to endure.

Breathe on me, Breath of God,
so shall I never die,
but live with you the perfect life
for all eternity.
