This is an old hymn that is sung as the spirit of worship is moving. "Let it breathe on me. Let the breath of the Lord now move on me". Please help me find the rest of the song.

Let the breath of the Lord breathe on me.

It was written by Magnolia Lewis-Butts, a collegue of Thomas Dorsey. the official title is "Let it Breathe on Me." Here's a link to a few publications that have the song in print:

It was good to see the song in its entirety because I was beglooming to think we were dishonoring God, calling him it."Let it breathe on me?" The Holy Spirit is God. Now I understand that it is the breath of God the song is referencing.

Let the breath of the Lord breathe on me.

LET IT BREATHE ON ME (1942)
Words & Music: Magnolia Lewis-Butts --
Harmony/Arranger: W. O. Hoyle

Let it breathe on me, Let it breathe on me.
Let the breath of God now breathe on me;
Let it breathe on me, Let it breathe on me,
Let the breath of God now breathe on me.


While I'm working Lord in your vineyard here,
I can do naught if thou aren't near.


Let it breathe on me, Let it breathe on me.
Let the breath of God now breathe on me;
Let it breathe on me, Let it breathe on me,
Let the breath of God now breathe on me.

When the pathway Lord I cannot see,
When the way is dark, Lord, breathe on me.


Let it breathe on me, Let it breathe on me.
Let the breath of God now breathe on me;
Let it breathe on me, Let it breathe on me,
Let the breath of God now breathe on me.

Let the breath of the Lord breathe on me.
