Lyrics

Breath of life
Fill this temple
My heart’s been torn in two
It’s all too much
My spirit’s been shattered
Comfort me with truth
I don’t understand
Why he is gone
And I don’t know just how I’m going to make it
Without You to keep me strong
God of love
Heal me
I’m broken
I need some life in me
Prince of peace
I need some relief
To mend my wounded soul
I don’t understand
Please hold my hand
‘Cause I don’t know just how I’m going to make it
Without You to keep me strong
And maybe I’ll survive
If You’ll just breathe Your life
And maybe someday soon I’ll breathe again
Just hold me tight
My Holy guide
You are with me
And You’ll make a way through this storm
And though I’m sad
My heart trusts in You
My shelter, my rock, and my joy
With You I will survive
Hiding in Your light
I know that someday soon I’ll breathe again
Just hold me tight
My breath of life
