words by Edwin Hatch
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.
Breathe on me, breath of God,
Until my heart is pure,
Until with Thee I will one will,
To do and to endure.
Breathe on me, breath of God,
Blend all my soul with Thine,
Until this earthly part of me
Glows with Thy fire divine.
Breathe on me, breath of God,
So shall I never die,
But live with Thee the perfect life
Of Thine eternity.

Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live. ~Ezekiel 37:5

I adore this hymn. It has a beautiful tune...but its real treasure is in the words.
Oh, to love what He loves...and to will one will with Him...and to glow with His fire divine. Prayers that challenge the heart. Things that we can ONLY do if He does breath on us with His Spirit.
