Lyrics
In humble adoration I kneel before Your throne
In brokenness I seek Your face alone
Above You there's no other who's able to restore my soul
Come and make me whole
Breathe on me
Power of God come in and change me
You are all I need, Holy Spirit, breathe on me
I'm ready to surrender
To give You all my life
No matter what the cost or sacrifice
Reveal to me Your calling
Cleanse me from my prideful ways
Use me now I pray
Breathe on me
Power of God come in and change me
You are all I need, Holy Spirit, breathe on me
I will say of the Lord, He is my strong tower
My rock and my fortress in whom I trust
In times of the storm and in tribulation
He is my help and my salvation
Breath of God restore my soul
I will say of the Lord, He is my strong tower
My rock and my fortress in whom I trust
In times of the storm and in tribulation
He is my help and my salvation
Breath of God restore my soul
Breathe on me
Power of God come in and change me
You are all I need, Holy Spirit, breathe on me

Meaning & Inspiration
Breathe On Me is a prayer of surrender shaped by humility, repentance, and dependence on the Holy Spirit. The singer kneels before God, asks to be made whole, and offers an entire life despite the cost of sacrifice. Its repeated plea for divine breath expresses a desire not merely for comfort, but for inward change, cleansing from pride, and readiness to serve wherever God calls.
The closing declaration moves from personal need to confident trust. Images of a strong tower, rock, fortress, help, and salvation portray God as secure refuge during storms and tribulation. The request for the breath of God to restore the soul may recall biblical passages where divine breath brings life and renewal. Together, these themes frame spiritual restoration as an act of God received through prayer, trust, and yielded obedience.
