Lyrics
Breath of Heaven, Fire of Grace
Verse 1
In an upper room, they waited, as He had once foretold,
For the Promise of the Father, more precious than gold.
Then a sound like rushing wind, and tongues of fire came,
Fulfilling ancient prophecy, in Yeshua’s mighty name.
Chorus
Breath of Heaven, fire of grace,
Descend upon this holy place.
Empower your church to spread Your Word,
In every heart, let Your voice be heard.
Verse 2
As the Spirit filled their being, they spoke in tongues unknown,
A sign of God’s great kingdom, where His love is shown.
Peter stood and boldly proclaimed, “This is what was spoken,”
By the prophet Joel, the chains of sin now broken.
Chorus
Breath of Heaven, fire of grace,
Descend upon this holy place.
Empower your church to spread Your Word,
In every heart, let Your voice be heard.
Bridge
From Jerusalem to the ends of the earth,
The Spirit drives us to proclaim rebirth.
In His power, we’ll stand and do our part,
To spread His love, with all our heart.
Chorus
Breath of Heaven, fire of grace,
Descend upon this holy place.
Empower your church to spread Your Word,
In every heart, let Your voice be heard.
Outro
So, let us go forth, in His mighty power,
For this is the day, this is the hour.
To shine His light, to speak His love,
Empowered by the Spirit, from above.
