[Verse 1]
Holy Spirit, living Breath of God
Breathe new life into my willing soul
Bring the presence of the risen Lord
To renew my heart and make me whole

Cause Your Word to come alive in me
Give me faith for what I cannot see
Give me passion for Your purity
Holy Spirit, breathe new life in me

[Verse 2]
Holy Spirit, come abide within
May Your joy be seen in all I do
Love enough to cover ev'ry sin
In each thought and deed and attitude

Kindness to the greatest and the least
Gentleness that sows the path of peace
Turn my striving into works of grace
Breath of God, show Christ in all I do

[Verse 3]
Holy Spirit, from creation's birth
Giving life to all that God has made
Show your power once again on earth
Cause Your church to hunger for Your ways
Let the fragrance of our prayers arise
Lead us on the road of sacrifice
That in unity the face of Christ
Will be clear for all the world to see

[Spoken]
And Christ with me
And Christ before me
Christ behind me and Christ with me
Christ beneath me and Christ above me
Christ to my right and Christ to my left
Christ when I lie down and Christ when I rise
Christ in the heart of everyone who thinks of me
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me
Christ in every eye that sees me
And Christ in every ear that hears me
I arise today through a mighty strength
The invocation of the Trinity
Through belief in the Threeness
Through confession of the Oneness
Of the Creator of creation
