Verse 1. Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Fill me with life anew,
That I may love what thou dost love,
And do what thou wouldst do.
Verse 2. Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Until my heart is pure,
Until with thee I will one will,
To do or to endure.
Verse 3. Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Till I am wholly thine,
Till all this earthly part of me
Glows with thy fire divine.
Verse 4. Breathe on me, Breath of God,
So shall I never die,
But live with thee the perfect life
Of thine eternity.
