Breathe upon Me

Sweetly and soft­ly my Sav­ior is call­ing

Gently in tones sweet and low;

Calming the storms in my in­ward life beat­ing

And hush­ing my soul and its woe.

Then sweet­ly breathe on me Thy life

And qui­et all doubt­ing with­in;

Yes

sweet­ly breathe on me Thy life

That my soul may be free from all sin.

Stronger and strong­er my Sav­ior is hold­ing

Keeping me close in His arms;

Shielding me safe when the bil­lows are roll­ing

And rest­ing my soul from alarms.

Deeper and deep­er my Sav­ior is com­ing

Into my heart ev­ery day;

Guarding my foot­steps while on this life’s jour­ney

With light from yon Heav­en’s own ray.

Daily

yes

dai­ly I’m know­ing Him bet­ter

Learning—close down at His feet;

Peace o’er my soul rush­es on like a riv­er

And hearts in true uni­son beat.
