When You Breathe on Me

When you breathe on me

     It sweeps away all my pretenses

     It breaks down all my defenses

I don't know what to do

When I'm loved by you

My Lord

When you hold my hand

     My warfare seems like it's over

     I'm layin' down in the sweet clover

Beside the waters still

Where I can drink my fill

Of your love

When you come to me

     My body starts tremblin' and shakin'

     My spirit begins to awaken

Come Lord and love me now

I don't know how

Just love me now

SONG NOTES

Can a worship song express too much intimacy? I don't know, but this is one song that I've never had the courage to use when leading worship; I've only sung it during my private times of personal worship. But even though I wrote it many, many years ago, when I try to sing it today I get all choked up because of the truth the song expresses.
