Imagine The Miracle

I was driving past that little white church on the hill

Dust on my boots

Too much on my mind

Time standing still

Radio low

But my thoughts were loud as thunder and rain

Whispered

“If You’re there

Could You meet me here in this ache

In this everyday pain?”

I don’t need a burning sky or mountains that move tonight

Just a sign that I’m not praying to the dark

But to the light

Imagine if a single word could open every door

If one small prayer could carry what these weary hands can’t hold anymore

Imagine if the quiet breath I’m sending up above

Is heard by God who turns it into wild

Unfolding love

Imagine the miracle

Hidden in the ordinary dust of our days

Imagine the miracle

Waiting on the edge of our prayers

Mama used to say

“Child

Faith ain’t always fireworks and sound

Sometimes it’s washing dishes

Sometimes it’s holding your ground”

I see her by the window

Lips moving soft over names and needs

She never saw the oceans part

But somehow we always had enough to eat

So I’m learning how to trust in answers I can’t see

‘Cause maybe every simple kindness is You

Reaching back to me

Imagine if a single word could open every door

If one small prayer could carry what these weary hands can’t hold anymore

Imagine if the quiet breath I’m sending up above

Is heard by God who turns it into wild

Unfolding love

Imagine the miracle

Hidden in the ordinary dust of our days

Imagine the miracle

Waiting on the edge of our prayers

What if the doctor’s call that says

“You’re gonna be fine

” is Your voice?

What if the strength to stay when I want to run is Your choice?

What if the tears that finally fall are the seeds of something new?

What if every moment I thought I was alone was just me

Being carried by You?

Imagine if a single word could open every door

If one small prayer could carry what these weary hands can’t hold anymore

Imagine if the quiet breath
