Lyrics:
  
O Holy One, Creator of the stars of night,
whose dust we are, created with your light,
now breathe your spirit into us and give us life;
give us new hearts that beat with your delight.
  Our dust and ashes, Love, we give in faith to you.
  Receive our lives, our sin, our wounds, our death;
  and raise us up with Christ from death to life by grace.
  God, may we be your love and you our living breath.
  
Breathe into us the breath of your compassion, God,
the breath to sing your praise in all we do,
the breath to run the race of justice, long and far.
Breathe, holy breath: empower and renew.
  O be the grace that fills our lungs, reviving us;
  O be the wind on which our hearts can soar;
  O be our life, our beauty and our living breath.
  O Spirit, come breathe in us now and evermore.
