To My Children: Miracles All

Miracles

I heard you say you thought you’d need a miracle

To change the way you think of who you are

But I know you, and I know you are a miracle

So the miracle that you need just can’t be far.

The day that you were born I held you closely.

I sang of One who came long, long ago.

And as I sang His love filled up the whole room,

For the miracle of His love is one I know.

You are the child I longed for.

You are a gift to me.

The day that you arrived on earth

A miracle came to be.

The sun rises and the sun sets,

On good and bad and all that’s in between.

And through it all you shine, though you are hurting.

And try to find the courage still to dream.

I know that you are broken.

That’s how the light gets through.

Christ’s light holds you together

A miracle just takes two.

One person who is broken.

One Savior who can heal.

One miracle is created.

With a light that you can feel.

You are the child I longed for.

You are a gift to me.

The day that you arrived on earth

A miracle came to be.

All of my children -- quite a long time ago!
