O BREATHE ON ME, O BREATH OF GOD
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.
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.
O breathe on me, O breath of God,
my will to Yours incline,
until this selfish part of me
glows with Your fire divine.
O breathe on me, O breath of God,
so I shall never die,
but live with You the perfect life
for all eternity.
