Breathe, Mama, Breath

It’s been months of tiny kicks and midnight dreams,

Folding blankets, washing onesies, nesting everything.

Now the bags are by the door, it’s time to go,

Your heart’s racing faster than you know.

You’ve waited for this day, prayed for this cry,

Now it’s just you and the stars in the sky…

Breathe, Mama, breathe—

You’re stronger than the pain you see.

Every wave that rolls will bring

Your little piece of heaven closer to your arms.

Breathe, Mama, breathe—

You were made for moments like these.

Let the fear fall away,

‘Cause love’s leading the way—

Just breathe.

The world gets quiet between each sound,

You squeeze a hand, the tears come down.

But somewhere in the middle of the ache and fight,

There’s a tiny heartbeat holding tight.

You can do this—yes, you can,

You were chosen for this plan.

Breathe, Mama, breathe—

You’re stronger than the pain you see.

Every wave that rolls will bring

Your little piece of heaven closer to your arms.

Breathe, Mama, breathe—

You were made for moments like these.

Let the fear fall away,

‘Cause love’s leading the way—

Just breathe.

Soon you’ll hear that first sweet cry,

The room will fade, and time will fly.

And every tear, every breath you take,

Will be the start of something Heaven-made.

Breathe, Mama, breathe—

You’re almost where you’re meant to be.

In the stillness, in the push and pain,

There’s beauty that will never fade.

Breathe, Mama, breathe—

Your miracle’s about to be seen.

Hold on and believe—

Just breathe.
