Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,

I'm as a bone disjoined and dry;

O may Thou quicken and restore me

And with Thy Body unify.

Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,

My spirit is so bound and slow;

O break my shackles and release me,

To mingle in Thy Body's flow.

Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,

My burdened spirit cannot rise;

May Thou encourage and revive me

To share Thy Body's full supplies.

Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,

My barren spirit has no joy;

O may Thou satisfy and bless me,

Thy Body's riches to enjoy.

Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,

To me a true dependence give;

Deal with my death and isolation,

That in Thy Body I may live.
