You are His miracle

With the anniversary of my brain surgery approaching, it always causes me to reflect on life.  I came across a CD of mine from a long time ago called "Never Be The Same" by Tony Melendez . (He was born with no arms and plays the instruments with his feet!)   The song "You are His Miracle" brought much healing to me during that season in life many years ago, and so I wanted to share the lyrics.  They are very powerful and bring a renewed peace to me.  I pray you feel a renewed and fresh sense of God's love for you in whatever season of life you are in right now.  


YOU ARE HIS MIRACLE
Words & Music by: Doug Eltzroth

She fights the crowd of her own town
The very streets her friends walk down
She’s sick, she’s dying, they all know.

Exhausted wisdom of the world
She’s still afflicted, Where is the cure?
“Just touch the border of His clothes…”

There’s no affliction, He cannot ease
There is no captive, He can’t release
There is no wrong, He cannot right
There is no lust, He cannot tame
There is no cripple, He cannot teach to walk,
To run, to dance, to fly. 

Chorus
You are His miracle, keep drawing nearer
You are His miracle, it’s becoming clearer
You are His miracle, a few more steps
Reach out your hand and you will see
You are his miracle, ready to be.

Her fingertips touched garment thread
Her childlike faith at last has led
Her to the very source of health
He turns and looks her eye to eye
It’s God himself and He replies:
“Your simple trust has made you well…”
There’s no heart torn He cannot bind
There is no lost He cannot find
There is no mute He cannot teach to talk
To shout, to laugh, to sing……

There is no storm He cannot whisper “Peace, be still”
There is no giant in His name you cannot kill
And there’s no hold on you He cannot sever
Nothing is too great -not now, not ever

Chorus
You are His miracle, keep drawing nearer
You are His miracle, it’s becoming clearer
You are His miracle, a few more steps
Reach out your hand and you will see
You are his miracle, ready to be.
