A Miracle

(Disclaimer: Not based on author's experience.)

Three failed suicide attempts - Daddy stole her innocence
and her whole world was filled with hatred and pain.
Three long years of his abuse – no one offered an excuse
the anger and emptiness no one could explain.
She would die before her time
from fear raging inside her mind
with a shattered life far beyond repair.
And she knew it wasn’t fair
but where could she turn from there?

Only Jesus has the power to heal.
He can restore from any ordeal.
He can mend your heart and make you whole.
But it’s going to take a miracle.

Now she’s grown and realizes – life is full of compromises.
And with all she’s given up she has the power to choose
to hang on or let go of the past.
Her bitterness would be gone at last.
She could accept God’s love or she could refuse.
But the only way to ever live
is in learning to forgive.
It’s safe to say and still so hard to do.


Then she turned her fear to hope
teaching others how to cope
and defeat the demons trying to destroy.
She moved beyond her years of shame and shares just how she overcame
and found a new life full of peace and joy
by the power of Jesus’ name.

‘Cause only Jesus has the power to heal.
He can restore from any ordeal.
He can mend your heart and make you whole.
But it’s going to take a miracle.

There’s nothing else you can do
but rely on grace and trust He’ll pull you through.
His Spirit can breathe beauty back into your soul.
All you need to do is to ask Him to
and let God do a miracle in you.
