Breathe (Your Spirit)

kauaikta

Song about the fear, doubt, and yes, hope from a disciple’s point of view, right after Jesus’ death. His followers hid and waited to hear news of His return…

My heart is cold
like an empty cave
Fear takes hold
when all Hope fades away

I’m hiding in the dark
Locked behind a door
Wondering where You are
Not sure what I’m waiting for

Breathe
Breathe Your Spirit on me
I want to remember
I want to believe

Breathe
Breathe Your Spirit on me
Won’t You meet me here?
Won’t You help me to see?

Why did You live
Only to die?
Why did I follow
Just to deny?

Show me Your face
My eyes are open wide
Show me Your Grace
Tell me that Love is alive

And breathe
Breathe Your Spirit on me
I want to remember
I want to believe
Breathe
Breathe Your Spirit on me
You will find me here
Lord, I’m ready to see

Roll away this shame and doubt
Tear the veil of night
Let the sun rise through the clouds
Flood my heart with light

Then breathe
Breathe Your Spirit on me
I’ll always remember
I’m ready to believe
Breathe
Breathe Your Spirit on me
You will find me here
Lord, I’m ready to see

Breathe
Breathe
Breathe
Breathe
