Breathe

Taken in Cade's Cove, TN

Do you ever have one of those moments or even days when you feel like you can't  breathe?  There are times I feel myself almost holding my breath.  While having a large-ish family is a blessing, sometimes I let myself get a little stressed out.  Earlier this morning I was praying and thinking about how I need the Holy Spirit just to come in and take over when the words to this hymn came to mind.  Praying that it somehow blesses you on this day as well.

Breathe on Me
Edwin Hatch


Holy Spirit, breathe on me,
Until my heart is clean;
Let sunshine fill its inmost part,
With not a cloud between.

Breathe on me, breathe on me,
Holy Spirit, breathe on me;
Take thou my heart, cleanse every part,
Holy Spirit, breathe on me.

Holy Spirit, breathe on me,
My stubborn will subdue;
Teach me in words of living flame
What Christ would have me do.

Breathe on me, breathe on me,

Holy Spirit, breathe on me;

Take thou my heart, cleanse every part,

Holy Spirit, breathe on me.

Holy Spirit, breathe on me, 

Fill me with power divine;

Kindle a flame of love and zeal

Within this heart of mine.

Breathe on me, breathe on me,

Holy Spirit, breathe on me;

Take thou my heart, cleanse every part,

Holy Spirit, breathe on me.

Holy Spirit, breathe on me, 

Till I am all thine own,

Until my will is lost in thine,

To live for thee alone.

Breathe on me, breathe on me,

Holy Spirit, breathe on me;

Take thou my heart, cleanse every part, 

Holy Spirit, breathe on me.
