BREATHE ON ME, BREATH OF GOD
Verse 1
Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Fill me with life anew,
That I may love what thou dost love,
And do what thou wouldst do.
Verse 2
Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Untill my heart is pure
Until my will is one with yours,
To do and to endure.
Verse 3
Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Till I am wholly thine,
Till all this earthly part of me
Glows with thy fire divine.
Verse 4
Breathe on me, Breath of God,
So shall I never die,
But live with thee thy perfect life
All eternity.
PRAISE TO THE HOLIEST
Verse 1
Praise to the Holiest in the height
And in the depth be praised,
In all His words most wonderful,
Most sure in all His ways.
Verse 2
O loving wisdom of our God
When all was sin and shame
A second Adam to the fight,
And to the rescue came.
Verse 3
O wisest love! that flesh and blood
Which did in Adam fail
Should strive afresh against the foe,
Should strive and should prevail.
Verse 4
And that a higher gift than grace
Should flesh and blood refine,
God's presence and His very self,
And essence all divine.
DESCANT
Praise to the Holiest in the height,
And in the depth be praise,
In all His words most wonderful
Most sure in all His ways.
