O BREATH OF GOD
1.
O breath of God, breathe on us now,
And move within us while we pray;
The spring of our new life art Thou,
The very light of our new day.
2.
Oh, strangely art Thou with us, Lord,
Neither in height nor depth to seek:
In nearness shall Thy voice be heard;
Spirit to spirit Thou dost speak.
3.
Christ is our Advocate on high;
Thou art our Advocate within.
O plead the truth, and make reply-
To every argument of sin.
4.
But ah, this faithless heart of mine!
The way I know, I know my Guide:
Forgive me, O my Friend divine,
That I so often turn aside.
5.
Be with me when no other friend-
The mystery of my heart can share;
And be Thou known, when fears transcend,
By Thy best name of Comforter.
