Miracle Child

When you got there

I was sure you'd come too late

We all pay you lip service

Then address our prayers to fate

Sister gone, she tripped and fell

A prodigal hell and do I dare believe you'll reach

Such a long lost cause, wrapped in gauze

As good as dead, she's breathing

My Lord, she's a miracle child

I know, she's a miracle child

I saw, how she'd chosen the grave

My Lord, it's a miracle save

When she woke up

We were dumbstruck at the sight

Like coming out of a coma

All she asked for was more light

Fluttering eyes, life from a tomb

You flooded her room, with a fearsome mercy

Torn from the devil's grip, from the clutches of fear

I can hear her dead heart beating

My Lord, she's a miracle child

I know, she's a miracle child

And I saw, how she'd chosen the grave

My Lord, it's a miracle save

We lose hope, we mumble our prayers

We seal off the stairs and never dare believe your reach

Can pass through stone, can lead a child home

Can make the dead start blinking

My Lord, she's a miracle child

I know, she's a miracle child

And I saw, how she'd chosen the grave

My Lord, it's a miracle save
