SKU: A0.850767

Composed by Robert Jackson. Arranged by Spike Maiden Müller. Christian,Sacred. 14 pages. Spike Maiden Mueller #6549783. Published by Spike Maiden Mueller (A0.850767).

Edwin Hatch, D.D., was an occasional hymn writer. In 1886 he composed the lines which comprise Breathe on Me, Breath of God. A prayer for renewal by God's spirit, it is surprisingly simple and sensitive coming from a man who was intensely educated.

The tune Trentham was composed in 1894 by Robert Jackson, a somewhat prolific composer of hymn tunes. He spent most of his professional life as organist for St. Peter's Church in Oldham, a position his father held for many years. The rising and falling of the melody has been compared to breathing itself. Both the Greek and Hebrew words for 'spirit' are the same as that for wind, air, or breath; thus the Spirit of God is referred to in this hymn as the "Breath of God."

This arrangement is for woodwind quintet. There are not many rests, but the effect is worth the extra effort. An alternate bass clarinet part is included for ensembles lacking a bassoonist.
