Intro:  Dm   F   Dm  C  
FSpeak in this close communion
Dm/                              Bb  F  
Though this hour seems timeless still
I wait for your words that bid me Bbcome
FBreathe in me, Holy Spirit
Dm/                        Bb  F  
The will when my tomorrow comes
To follow when this song is Bbgone
So I Fawait the words that you Csay
I open my Dmlife
I am longing just to hear these Fwords
That you Csay, that you DmsayC  
FShape me with words of wisdom
Dm/                           Bb  F  
Free my torn heart from this world
Renew my mind and form my Bbwill
FTeach me to wholly offer
Dm/                         Bb  F  
More than words that I can sing
So I become the song I Bbbring
So I aFwait the words that you Csay

Breathe in me, Holy Spirit
The will when my tomorrow comes
To follow when this song is gone

I open my life
I am longing just to hear these words
That you say, that you say
So I await the words that you say
I open my life
I am longing just to hear these words
That you say, that you say

A reflection of your Bblight
And live to bring you prCaise and serve you, Lord

I am longing just to hear these words
That you say, that you say
