You Breathed Into Man The Breathe Of Life Poem by Gary James Smith

YOU BREATHED INTO MAN THE BREATH OF LIFE



You breathed into man the breath of life

And a living soul he became

We are breathing still today

We breathe to praise Your name

Our hearts are made to pump the blood

That keeps our bodies fit

Yet some men still disbelieve

And will hear, none of it



Yet Lord You are so merciful

Your grace much more abounding

While sin takes its toll on men today

Your patience is astounding

Longsuffering is an attribute

No longsuffering One as Thee

You hold back all Your wrath and wait

And love abundantly



Abundant life you give to those

Who trust in Your blessed name

And those who do are sure to tell

They'll never be the same

A witness to your great love

Poured out at Calvary

Where Jesus shed His precious blood

And died for you and me



Blest O doubly blest we are

Who trust in Jesus name

Who are reconciled now to God

O praise His glorious name

I can feel a touch of Heaven

My soul has been set free

Sin's released its stranglehold

For Jesus lives in me!
