Breath of Heaven
Tuesday, November 26, 2024
One of my favorite songs is Breath of Heaven by Amy Grant. It is often called Mary's Song because we naturally think about her carrying Jesus in the Christmas Story.
I find that we could name the song Anyone's Song. I challenge you to turn off your lights, (or leave on your Christmas tree lights), be still, and play this song. Listen to the words carefully. As followers of Christ, we have the babe inside us, the Savior of the World, Jesus Christ.
I pray you have a renewed Spirit of Hope that we are filled with heaven's breath. Being born again is a holy gift.

I have traveled many moonless nightsCold and weary with a babe insideAnd I wonder what I've doneHoly Father, you have comeAnd chosen me now to carry your son
I am waiting in a silent prayerI am frightened by the load I bearIn a world as cold as stoneMust I walk this path alone?Be with me now, be with me now
Breath of heaven, hold me togetherBe forever near me, breath of heavenBreath of heaven, lighten my darknessPour over me your holiness for you are holyBreath of heaven
Do you wonder as you watch my faceIf a wiser one should have had my place?But I offer all I amFor the mercy of your planHelp me be strong, help me be, help me
Breath of heaven, hold me togetherBe forever near me, breath of heavenBreath of heaven, lighten my darknessPour over me your holiness for you are holy
Breath of heaven, hold me togetherBe forever near me, breath of heavenBreath of heaven, lighten my darknessPour over me your holiness for you are holyBreath of heaven, breath of heavenBreath of heaven
