Lucy Fisher, songwriter |
In 1998 Lucy Fisher wrote the words and music to the song, Breath on Me. I have the chords in the sheet music from the songbook, Shout To The Lord 2000.
It's in the Key of G with a 4/4 time signature.
Listen to this beautiful song... The breath of the Almighty gives me life. Job 33:4
