Breathe Upon Us, Lord From Heaven

Breathe Upon Us, Lord From Heaven

Breathe Upon Us

Breathe upon us, Lord from heaven
Fill us with the Holy Ghost
The promise of the Father given
Send us now a Pentecost

Refrain:
Breathe′ upon us, breathe upon us
With Your love, our hearts inspire
Breathe′ upon us, breathe upon us

Lord, baptize us now with fire
While the Spirit hovers o’er us
Open all our hearts we pray
To Your image, Lord restore us
Witness in our souls today
Lift us Lord, O lift us higher
From the carnal mindset free
Fill us with refining fire
Give us perfect liberty
