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.

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.

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...
