You are the Balm of Gilead 

You are the rose of Sharon 

You are my peace in the midst of the storm 

You are the air I breathe oh lord you are 

You are the air I breathe oh lord you are x2

 

~Music break ~

Lord I thank you for your touch 

And your warm embrace 

Your joy fills my heart 

Lord I'm so grateful x2

You are the Balm of Gilead 

You are the rose of Sharon 

You are my peace in the midst of the storm 

You are the air I breathe oh lord you are 

You are the air I breathe oh lord you are x2

Ooooooh oooooh oooooh

You are the air I breathe oh Lord you are 

You are the air I breathe oh Lord you are x2

 

Bridge 

You are the air I breathe 

You are the Balm of Gilead 

You are the rose of Sharon 

You are my peace in the midst of the storm 

You are the air I breathe oh lord you are 

You are the air I breathe oh lord you are
