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.
