Breathe on us, Lord of life,
Fill us with life anew,
That we may love what Thou dost love,
And do what Thou wouldst do.
Fill us with life anew,
That we may love what Thou dost love,
And do what Thou wouldst do.

Breathe on us, Lord of life.
Until our hearts are pure,
Until with Thee we will one will,
To do or to endure.
Until our hearts are pure,
Until with Thee we will one will,
To do or to endure.

Breathe on us, Lord of life,
Till we are wholly Thine,
Till all this earthly part of us
Glows with Thy fire divine.
Till we are wholly Thine,
Till all this earthly part of us
Glows with Thy fire divine.

Breathe on us, Lord of life,
So shall we never die,
But live with Thee the perfect life
Of Thine eternity.
So shall we never die,
But live with Thee the perfect life
Of Thine eternity.
