Breath of Life Lyrics
Verse 1
From the dust, You formed the ground,
A lifeless shape, no voice, no sound.
Then You breathed, and life began,
A soul awakened by Your hand.
Chorus
Breath of life, You made us whole,
In Your image, heart and soul.
In Eden's garden, where rivers flow,
Your love abounds, forever we’ll know.
Verse 2
A garden placed, so lush, so pure,
With every tree, Your love ensured.
The rivers ran, life’s streams untamed,
And every creature bore its name.
Chorus
Breath of life, You made us whole,
In Your image, heart and soul.
In Eden's garden, where rivers flow,
Your love abounds, forever we’ll know.
Bridge
Bone of my bones, flesh of my flesh,
A union blessed, holy and fresh.
You saw my need, You made a way,
Together we walk, come what may.
Verse 3
In the cool of day, You walked with me,
A sacred bond, a mystery.
Your presence near, no fear, no strife,
In Eden’s heart, eternal life.
Chorus
Breath of life, You made us whole,
In Your image, heart and soul.
In Eden's garden, where rivers flow,
Your love abounds, forever we’ll know.
Outro
Breath of life, our hearts remain,
Forever Yours, in joy or pain.
From Eden’s soil to Heaven’s throne,
We’ll praise the love we’ve always known.
From the dust, You formed the ground,
A lifeless shape, no voice, no sound.
Then You breathed, and life began,
A soul awakened by Your hand.
Chorus
Breath of life, You made us whole,
In Your image, heart and soul.
In Eden's garden, where rivers flow,
Your love abounds, forever we’ll know.
