1. Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,
  I'm as a bone disjoined and dry;
  O may Thou quicken and restore me
  And with Thy Body unify.
2. Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,
  My spirit is so bound and slow;
  O break my shackles and release me,
  To mingle in Thy Body's flow.
3. Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,
  My burdened spirit cannot rise;
  May Thou encourage and revive me
  To share Thy Body's full supplies.
4. Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,
  My barren spirit has not joy;
  O may Thou satisfy and bless me,
  Thy Body's riches to enjoy.
5. Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,
  To me a true dependence give;
  Deal with my death and isolation,
  That in Thy Body I may live.
