This hymn has a unique tune

 

 1  Breathe Thou, O Lord, on me,

    My drooping spirit raise;

    Deliver me from fear and death

    Into Thy life of praise.

 

 2  Breathe Thou, O Lord, on me,

    Strength to my spirit bring,

    That running, walking, fainting not,

    I'll mount on eagles' wings.

 

 3  Breathe Thou, O Lord, on me,

    That I may enter rest,

    That heart and spirit joyful be

    By leaning on Thy breast.

 

 4  Breathe Thou, O Lord, on me

    Till filled with Thee, I plead,

    No longer I that live, but Christ

    In thought, and word, and deed.

 

 5  Breathe Thou on me and touch

    My independency,

    That in Thy Body I'll be built

    With all the saints in Thee.
