Breath of Heaven (Mary’s Song) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I have traveled many moonless nights
Cold and weary, with a babe inside
And I wonder what I've done
Holy Father you have come
And chosen me now, to carry your son

[Verse 2]
I am waiting, in a silent prayer
I am frightened, by the load I bear
In a world as cold as stone
Must I walk this path alone?
Be with me now, be with me now

[Chorus]
Breath of Heaven, hold me together
Be forever near me, breath of Heaven
Breath of Heaven, lighten my darkness
Pour over me your holiness, for you are holy
Breath of Heaven

[Verse 3]
Do you wonder when you watch my face
If a wiser one should have had my place?
But I offer all I am for the mercy of your plan
Help me be strong, help me be strong
Help me be strong, help me
[Chorus]
Breath of Heaven, hold me together
Be forever near me, breath of Heaven
Breath of Heaven, lighten my darkness
Pour over me your holiness, for you are holy
Breath of Heaven
Breath of Heaven, hold me together
Be forever near me, breath of Heaven
Breath of Heaven, lighten my darkness
Pour over me your holiness, for you are holy
Breath of Heaven

[Outro]
Breath of Heaven
Breath of Heaven
Breath of Heaven
Breath of Heaven

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
