Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me

1
Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,
  I’m as a bone disjoined and dry;
O may Thou quicken and restore me
  And with Thy Body unify.
2
Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,
  My spirit is so bound and slow;
O break my shackles and release me,
  To mingle in Thy Body’s flow.
3
Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,
  My burdened spirit cannot rise;
May Thou encourage and revive me
  To share Thy Body’s full supplies.
4
Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,
  My barren spirit has no joy;
O may Thou satisfy and bless me,
  Thy Body’s riches to enjoy.
5
Lord, breathe Thy breath of life upon me,
  To me a true dependence give;
Deal with my death and isolation,
  That in Thy Body I may live.

I love the words but I don’t know the music. I guess the reason why is the hymnal was 1200 pages. There are many pages I’ve never turned. I doubt if very many saints even know even 200 of them.

This hymn is so sweet, filled with so many prayer burdens.
