Breathe on me, breathe of God
Love and life that makes me free
Breathe on me, breathe of God
Fan the flame within me,
Teach my heart, heal my soul,
Speak the life, that in Christ we know
Take me to your sancuary, breathe on me
Breathe on me, breathe of God
Love and life that makes me free
Breathe on me, breathe of God
Fan the flame within me,
Speak to me, voice of God
Soft and still, inside of us
Speak to me, Word of God
Comfort heal, restore my life
Teach my heart, heal my soul,
Speak the life, that in Christ we know
Take me to your sancuary, breathe on me
