Flute Choir
Breath of Heaven Program Notes
Breath of Heaven (also known as Marys Song) was written by Amy Grant
and Chris Eaton. I first heard it at a church Christmas program and was touched
by the beauty of the music and the lyrics.Â
This arrangement will be a great addition to the repertoire for
Christmas programs.
This flute choir arrangement is scored for 3 flutes, alto
flute (alternate c-flute part included), and bass flute, and optional
contrabass flute. In the Flute 1 part,
there is a small solo part for piccolo, although it could also be played by a
solo flute.Â

Phyllis Avidan Louke is a flutist and award-winning composer
and arranger with more than 70 published pieces to her credit. Â A list of her other SMP arrangements can be

Lyrics to Breath Of Heaven (Mary's Song)
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
[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 had my place
But I offer all I am
For the mercy of your plan
Help me be strong
Help me be
Help me
