Breathe upon us, Lord, from heaven;
Fill us with the Holy Ghost;
Promise of the Father given,
Send us now a Pentecost.
Refrain:
Breathe upon us, breathe upon us;
With Thy love our hearts inspire;
Breathe upon us, breathe upon us;
Lord, baptize us now with fire.
While the Spirit hovers o'er us,
Open all our hearts, we pray;
To Thine image, Lord, restore us;
Witness in our souls today.
From all sin grant us exemption,
Wash us in the cleansing flood;
Let us know the full redemption
Purchased for us by the blood.
Lift us, Lord, O lift us higher;
From the carnal mind set free;
Fill us with refining fire;
Give us perfect liberty.
