Miracles

by Pat Severin

Oh, God the God of miracles,
I’m needing one today.
I’m so in need and so I plead,
May you, please, show the way.

I’m praying for this heartache,
and pray that things will change.
I’m scared, and I don’t understand.
Can You please rearrange…

My heart and my acceptance
Of all that seems my lot.
My tragedy’s consuming me.
Such sadness I have got.

I know you never promised me
That Christians have it easy,
But how much more must I endure?
It’s too much, Lord, believe me.

I’m praying to believe You,
That You can help me, Lord.
I trust you, Lord, and here I stand,
I need to be restored.

So I am asking for your hand
To take mine, Lord, today.
I know you’re there and that you care
Please help me find my way…

Into the light that helps me bear
The darkness of it all.
You are the God of miracles
And so on, You I call.
