Hymn 212
O Breath of God, breathe on us now
- 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.
- O 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.
- Christ is our Advocate on high;
Thou art our Advocate within:
O plead the truth and make reply
To every argument of sin.
- 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.
- 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.
Christly Living
