D                     G      D   
I used to carry this big old world
G      D        G   D
On my shoulders and back
D                G       D
I used to lie inside my room
G         A         D
Wondering where I'm at
 

D                       G          D
I felt a chill running through my veins
G    D                G  D
And wondered, would I be saved?
D                       G      D
I felt the ice building in my soul
G        A      D
Would it melt away?
 
Chorus
G       D
He's a warm breeze
G         A         D
Breathing life into me
G        D
He's the sunlight
G       A       D
Shining down on me
 

I used to worry my life away
Counting every dime
Shutting out the ones I loved
Never finding the time
 

And then one day I was overcome
By loneliness and dispair
And deep inside I thought I heard
'Lean on me, I'm here'
 

Chorus
 

I pulled the burden from off my back
And tossed it into the wind
And stretched my arms toward the sky
And let my life begin
 

And like a tree, I have measured up
Best when I've been cut down
And like a tree, I can touch the sky
With my feet on the ground
 

Chours
 

He's a warm breeze
Breathing life into me
He's the sunlight
Shining down on me, yeah
Shining down on me
Shining down, shining down
Shining down on me
