Growing up Baptist I was never much exposed to thinking about Jesus’ mother.  In fact, I once heard a preacher say she was no more special than the colt that carried Jesus into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday.

I am pleased to note that Evangelical Protestantism is working to correct this oversite. 

Click here for Amy Grant’s You Tube causing us to reflect on the Faith and fears of this great woman of God.

The Mother of Jesus.   Think of the ramifications … for they are almost endless.

Here are the lyrics …

I have traveled
Many moonless night
Cold and Weary
With a babe inside
And I wonder
What I’ve done
Holy Father
You have come
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 your holy Breath of Heaven
———————————–

Do you wonder
As you watch my face
If a wiser one, should of had my place
But I offer-all I am
For the mercy-of your plan
Help me be strong
Help me be
Help me
