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
