Lyrics[]
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
And 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
Light 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
Take Me to Your Leader |
