God breathed Adams first breath of life
and then breath to Eve God gave to his wife.
Now God was the image for man he created
his word holds the truth when it is debated.
New breath of life is breathed every day
existing breath come what may.
By God's grace we have life's breath
from our Lord Jesus no sting of death
All breath from this world whether future or past
is given by God until we breath our last.
But hope is not lost for in him we remain
to live is Christ Jesus and to die is gain.
