Tuesday night I wrote this new song, ‘Breathe on me’. As with most of the best songs I’ve written, I wrote it in the stark of night, while sitting on my bed in the pitch dark worshiping. I had been praying, asking God to breathe out His Spirit in power this Pentecost just like He did for the early church, when this song just came out of me. I did a quick acoustic recording of it yesterday. I hope the Spirit blesses you through it.
Breathe, O breath of God, baptize my heart
Breathe on these dry bones, bring them life
Spirit make your home deep within
Lead me to the truth, lead this life
Spirit breathe on me
Won’t You breathe on me
Spirit breathe on me
Won’t You breathe on me
Come O Rushing Wind, and fill our hearts
Come with tongues of Fire, ignite our hearts
God is the source and preserver of all life. In the beginning He breathed life into our lungs and every breath since has been a miraculous gift from His mouth. In Him we find life and find it abundantly. This Pentecost let’s ask God to breathe His life anew into our hearts and to ignite a passion for His name. Let’s expect to see His glory made manifest with a mighty rushing wind and tongues of fire. Lord pour out Your Spirit on Your children I pray. Amen.
