Author: Bessie P. Head Hymnal: Hymns for the Living Church #196 (1974) Meter: 9.8.9.8 First Line: O Breath of Life, come sweeping through us Lyrics:
1 O Breath of Life, come sweeping through us,
Revive Thy church with life and pow'r.
O Breath of Life, come, cleanse, renew us,
And fit Thy church to meet this hour.
2 O Wind of God, come bend us, break us,
Till humbly we confess our need;
Then in Thy 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 Thy church in every part.
4 Revive us, Lord! Is zeal abating
While harvest fields are vast and white?
Revive us, Lord, the world is waiting,
Equip Thy church to spread the light.
Amen. Topics: Renewal of the Church Scripture: Psalm 85:6 Languages: English Tune Title: SPIRITUS VITAE
O Breath of Life
