Breath of Heaven (Mary's Song) Songtext
von Vince Gill

We 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, my love, to carry Your son

I am waiting in a silent prayer
I am troubled 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


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 had my place?
But I offer all I am for the mercy of Your plan
Help me be strong, help me be, help me

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, 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
Breath of heaven
