mp 2 Breathe on me, Breath of God,

Until my heart is pure,

Until with Thee I will one will,
To do or to endure.

3 Breathe on me, Breath of God,
Till I am wholly Thine,

Till all this earthly part of me
Glows with Thy fire divine.

mf 4 Breathe on me, Breath of God, So shall I never die;

But live with Thee the perfect life Of Thine eternity.

A-MEN.

mf 2 O Saviour, Guest most bounteous
Of old in Galilee,
Vouchsafe to-day Thy presence
With these who call on Thee;
Their store of earthly gladness

Transform to heavenly wine,
And teach them, in the tasting,
To know the gift is Thine.

mp3 O Spirit of the Father,

Breathe on them from above,
So mighty in Thy pureness,
So tender in Thy love;

That, guarded by Thy presence,

From sin and strife kept free,
Their lives may own Thy guidance,
Their hearts be ruled by Thee.

mf 4 Except Thou build it, Father,
The house is built in vain;
Except Thou, Saviour, bless it,
The joy will turn to pain;
But naught can break the marriage
Of hearts in Thee made one,
And love Thy Spirit hallows

Is endless love begun.
