I need a miracle today
My prayers have flown to You
When other avenues are blocked
You'll know just what to do

It isn't for myself I ask
You've been so good to me
But for someone I love so much
I'm sending up this plea

Please comfort them with your sweet love
When things look really dim
May guardian angels swiftly fly
To help their sorrow mend

I thank You with a humble heart
For blessings undeserved
And know my heart can speak to Yours
Without uttering a word

You are the Friend who never leaves
Through any trial or test
So I'm asking for a miracle
From the One who knows what's best

Not without design does God write the music of our lives.
Be it ours to learn the time, and not be discouraged at the
rests. The making of music is often a slow and painful
process in this life.
~ John Ruskin
