Cold and weary with a babe inside

Holy Father, You have come
And chosen me now to carry
Your Son

I am frightened
By the load I bear

In a world as cold as stone
Must I walk this path alone?

Lighten my darkness
Pour over me
Your holiness
For You are holy

Do you wonder as you
Watch my face
If a wiser one
should have had my place?

Then I offer all I am
For the mercy of Your plan
Help me be strong
help me be
Help me

Breath of heaven
Lighten my darkness
Pour over me
Your holiness
For You are holy

Breath Of Heaven (Mary's Song) - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]

"Breath of Heaven (Mary's Song)" by Jesus Culture is a poignant and deeply moving song that captures the essence of Mary's journey as the mother of Jesus. It's a song that resonates with the human condition, our fears, our hopes, and our longing for divine intervention in our lives. 

The song's lyrics echo the sentiments found in Luke 1:30-33, where the angel Gabriel tells Mary, "Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High." This passage resonates with the song's pre-chorus, where Mary wonders what she has done to be chosen to carry God's Son. 

The song also mirrors the sentiments of Psalm 34:4, "I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears." This verse aligns with the song's chorus, where Mary pleads for the 'Breath of Heaven' to hold her together, to be forever near her, to lighten her darkness, and to pour over her His holiness. 

The song and these scriptures remind us of the divine intervention in our lives, even when we feel unworthy or unprepared. They remind us that God's plans are often beyond our understanding, but His presence is a constant source of strength and comfort. 

The song's lyrics and the corresponding Bible verses also highlight the profound humility and faith of Mary. Despite her fears and uncertainties, she surrenders herself to God's plan, echoing Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."

As we reflect on this song and the scriptures, we are reminded of the divine presence in our lives, guiding us, strengthening us, and lighting our path even in our darkest moments. We are reminded of the power of faith and surrender to God's will, just as Mary did.

So, as we ponder on these thoughts, let's ask ourselves: How can we, like Mary, trust in God's plan for our lives, even when it seems daunting and beyond our understanding? How can we invite the 'Breath of Heaven' into our lives to lighten our darkness and guide us on our path? How can we surrender our fears and uncertainties to God, trusting in His divine plan and His constant presence in our lives?
