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 pa*s 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
