revive your church with life and power;
O Breath of Life, come, cleanse, renew us,
And fit your church to meet this hour.
2 O Wind of God, come bend us, break us,
till humbly we confess our need;
then in your tenderness remake us,
revive, restore--for this we plead.
3 O Breath of Love, come breathe within us,
renewing thought and will and heart;
come, Love of Christ, afresh to win us,
revive your church in every part! Used With Tune: SPIRITUS VITAE
O Breath of Life
