The flame in my heart used to blaze with delight
But like sparks that rise into the skies, it vanished in the night
Now I long to once again
Burn for You as I did then
But to even try there's something I must ask of You
I need You to...
Breathe on me, breathe on me
It's been so long since the fire within
Burned bright and strong
Breathe on me, breathe on me
Like a gentle breeze, L-rd I ask You please
To tenderly breathe on me
Blow, Spirit, blow
Come & fill this weary soul
In Your mercy send a holy wind and 'til You do
I'll wait for You to
Breathe on me, breathe on me
It's been so long since the fire within
Burned bright and strong
Breathe on me, breathe on me
Like a gentle breeze, L-rd I ask You please
Won't You tenderly, breathe on me
It isn't that I've lost my desire
It's just that what once was a fire has dwindled again
And it needs to be kindled again, so
Breathe on me, breathe on me
It's been so long since the fire within
Burned bright and strong
Breathe on me, breathe on me
Deep inside I know hiding embers glow
They could grow into a flame for all to see
If You'd only, if You'd only, if You'd only
Breathe on Me
