All the lights are up in town
All the snow is falling down
Finally Christmastime is here
But the season's not the same
Cause we've all been touched by pain
Oh God, we need some hope this year
We know You came to save us
A divided world in chaos
Speak in power
To the spirit of fear
Break the silence
Remind me You're here
Breath of God
Speak compassion
To the wounded and shamed
Show the mercy
That heals in Your name
Oh, breath of God
Speak peace
The star that lights the sky
Guides us to the why
Finally Christmastime is here
Reminding us You're faithful
Like a mighty choir of angels
Speak in power
To the spirit of fear
Break the silence
Remind me You're here
Breath of God
Speak peace
Speak compassion
To the wounded and shamed
Show the mercy
That heals in Your name
Oh, breath of God
Speak peace
Peace to the children who don't have a home
Peace to the widow who feels so alone
May the brightest of stars light the darkest of skies
And the chorus of angels fill our silent night
Oh, breath of God
Oh, breath of God
Breath of God
Speak
Speak in power
To the spirit of fear
Break the silence
Remind me You're here
Breath of God
Speak compassion
To the wounded and shamed
Show the mercy
That heals in Your name
Oh, breath of God
Speak Your power
Oh, breath of God
Speak peace
Breath of God
Speak peace
