Breathe Thou, O Lord, on me

1
Breathe Thou, O Lord, on me,
My drooping spirit raise;
Deliver me from fear and death
Into Thy life of praise.
2
Breathe Thou, O Lord, on me,
Strength to my spirit bring,
That running, walking, fainting not,
I’ll mount on eagles’ wings.
3
Breathe Thou, O Lord, on me
That I may enter rest,
That heart and spirit joyful be
By leaning on Thy breast.
4
Breathe Thou, O Lord, on me
Till filled with Thee, I plead,
No longer I that live, but Christ
In thought, and word, and deed.
5
Breathe Thou on me and touch
My independency,
That in Thy Body I’ll be built
With all the saints in Thee.

O Lord! How we depend on You to Breathe on us! Raise our drooping spirits, strengthen us into the inner man, grant us to enter rest, to be filled with You, and, HALLELUIAH, to lose independency to be built with all the saints in Thee. Breathe on us for this, O Lord.
