It Took a Miracle

Words and Music by John W. Peterson

My Father is omnipotent,
and that you can’t deny;
a God of might and miracles,
’tis written in the sky.

Chorus:
It took a miracle to put the stars in place;
It took a miracle to hang the world in space.
But when He saved my soul,
Cleansed and made me whole,
It took a miracle of love and grace.

Though here His glory has been shown,
we still can’t fully see
The wonders of His might, His throne,
’twill take eternity.

The Bible tells us of His power
and wisdom all way through;
and every little bird and flower
are testimonies too.

The greatness of the Lord is seen
in everything he made,
but greater far the work He did
when on Him my sin was laid.
