Author: Edwin Hatch, 1835-1889 Hymnal: Glory and Praise (3rd. ed.) #399 (2015) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 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.
2 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.
3 O breathe on me, O Breath of God,
My will to yours incline,
Until this selfish part of me
Glows with your fire divine.
4 O breathe on me, O Breath of God,
So I shall never die,
But live with you the perfect life
For all eternity.
