Author: Edwin Hatch, 1835-89 Hymnal: The New English Hymnal #342b (1986) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 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.
2 Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Until my heart is pure,
Until with thee I will one will,
To do and to endure.
3 Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Till I am wholly thine,
Until this earthly part of me
Glows with the fire divine.

So shall I never die,
But live with thee the perfect life
Of thine eternity. Topics: Pentecost or Whitsunday; Confirmation Languages: English Tune Title: AYLESBURY
