breathe in the Spirit – v5

believe, live hopeful,
you people, this nation;
the living body of Christ
many parts, many pieces.

breathe in God, the Spirit,
trust in His promise;
all will be given new life
with the Spirit within.

breathe in the Spirit
of Genesis, of creation;
breathe in the Spirit
of the dry bones, of Ezekiel.

breathe in the Spirit
of the resurrection, of Christ;
breathe in the Spirit
of Pentecost, of fire alive.

new life returning,
quickening flesh;
the dead will live once more
the dry bones come to life.

the lifeless bodies,
filled with the Spirit;
life returned to them
by the breath of God.
