I have traveled many moonless nights,
Cold and weary, with a baby inside,
And I wonder what I've done,
Holy Father, You have come
And chosen me now, to carry Your son
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
Do You wonder as You watch my face,
If a wiser one should have my place?
But I offer all I am
For the mercy of Your plan,
Be with me now, be with me now
REPEAT CHORUS
Breath of heaven
Breath of heaven
Cold and weary, with a baby inside,
And I wonder what I've done,
Holy Father, You have come
And chosen me now, to carry Your son
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
Do You wonder as You watch my face,
If a wiser one should have my place?
But I offer all I am
For the mercy of Your plan,
Be with me now, be with me now
REPEAT CHORUS
Breath of heaven
Breath of heaven
