Prologue
D Cadd9
At the dawn of time when the world was young
G D
God planted a garden east of Eden
D Cadd9
A perfect place in a perfect world
G D
A cradle for His last creation
D Cadd9
Man was formed from the dust of the earth
G D
Created from common clay
D Cadd9
And Adam was made and living soul when
G A D
He was filled with the breath of God
Chorus
D Cadd9
We live and we move and we have our being
G D
We’re Living in the breath of God
D Cadd9
And the world was formed by God speaking
G A D
Created by the breath of God
Verse 1
D Cadd9
The east wind blew all day and all night
G D
Making the sea dry ground
D Cadd9
The Israelites did safely take flight
G D
Delivered by the breath of God
D Cadd9
And the word of God came not in the old time
G D
Not by the will of men
D Cadd9
But holy men spake as the were moved
G A D
Moved by the breath of God
Chorus
D Cadd9
We live and we move and we have our being
G D
We’re Living in the breath of God
D Cadd9
And the world was formed by God speaking
G A D
Created by the breath of God
Verse 2
D Cadd9
Ezekiel stood in a valley wide
G D
And lo it was full of bones
D Cadd9
God said “Son of man prophesy”
G D
lo the bones shall live
D Cadd9
Then bone-to-bone sinew and flesh
G D
Arose an army exceeding strong
D Cadd9
And the four winds blew upon that host
G A D
And filled them with the breath of God
Bridge
C G D
Breath on us oh Lord
C G D
Breath on us oh Lord
C G D
Breath on us oh Lord
C G D
Breath on us oh Lord
Verse 3
C Cadd9
In the beginning was the word and the word was with God
G D
And lo the word was made flesh
D Cadd9
He dwelt among God’s fallen sons
G D
A beacon of righteousness
D Cadd9
He said come to me all ye that hunger and thirst
G D
And you shall surely be filled
D Cadd9
He breathe on them with His own breath
G A D
And filled with the breath of God
Chorus
D Cadd9
We live and we move and we have our being
G D
We’re Living in the breath of God
D Cadd9
And the world was formed by God speaking
G A D
Created by the breath of God
Verse 4
D Cadd9
A hundred and twenty in the upper room
G D
Waited with one accord
D Cadd9
A mighty rushing wind and fire
G D
Filled them with the breath of God
D Cadd9
He said this is that which the prophet Joel
G D
Spake of and testified
D Cadd9
In these Latter days you shall all be filled
G A D
Filled with the breath of God
Bridge
C G D
Breath on us oh Lord
C G D
Breath on us oh Lord
C G D
Breath on us oh Lord
C G D
Breath on us oh Lord
Epilogue
D Cadd9
At the end of the time, when this world is through
G D
God will fashion another Eden
D Cadd9
A perfect place in a perfect world
G D
A home for those who know salvation
D Cadd9
Man shall not live by bread alone
G D
But by every word from the mouth of God
D Cadd9
And we shall be eternal souls
G D
Filled with the breath of God
Chorus
D Cadd9
And we’ll live and we’ll move and we’ll have our being
G D
Living in the breath of God
D Cadd9
The new world will be formed by God speaking
G A D
Created by the breath of God
