Love Is Breathing

[A]  [D]  [A]  [E]

[D]And what is this lightning? And what is this thunde[A]ring?
And what on earth has [E]happened, that makes angels sing?
[D]In all the confusion, I almost left the sh[A]eep,
the town begins to p[E]ack, down the path from me.
Another shepherd comes my wa[D]y, I run to meet him.
[E]He strains to try and catch his breath, he's barely b[D]reathin.
[D]His voice is shaking and f[E]ading thin as he starts to [D]speak,
Y[D]ou won't believe what I've seen.

Chrous:

[A]Love is breathing,
[E]Hope is screaming t[D]onight, In the baby's c[A]ry.
I[A] held mercy,
[E]I saw grace in[D]side, of this newborn's e[E]yes.
And ev[E]erything we know is about to [D]change,
He's [E]laying in the stable in a [D]manger, asleep on the [A]hay.

[D]He said go quickly, and I will watch the s[A]heep,
But you have got to w[E]itness, all these mysteries.
[D]I ran to the village, and when I reached the s[A]treets,
the keeper of the i[E]nn began to cry out to me
[D]Have you heard this news he s[E]aid, I just don't unders[D]tand,
If had known that they were c[E]oming, I would have made room just for [D]them.
Until you realize in t[E]his small town what's happe[D]ning
y[D]ou won't believe what I've seen

-LAST LINE)

It was quiet at the s[D]table, in the stillness of the [E]night,
My heart was pounding in my chest as I peeked [D]inside.
He's a young carpenter and she was just a little [E]girl,
And terrified, and carrying, the fate of the whole w[D]orld.
And then she looked me in the eyes, and held her arms out [E]wide,
Y[E]ou won't believe what I see tonight

Love is b[D]re[A]at[E]hing (alleluia, alleluia, alleluia)
Love is b[D]re[A]at[E]hing (allelluia, alleluia)
love is b[D]reathing
