The miracle

Great was the miracle

When Abraham, old beyond age

Beheld Isaac, new born

His righteousness’ wage

 

Great was that miracle

When the rod in Moses’ hand

Parted the sea twain

And Israel walked on dry land

 

Great was the miracle

When the three men walked the furnace

Heated seven fold over yet

Unhurt unburned they did surface

 

Great was the miracle

When as token of Daniel’s faith

Sealed was the lion’s mouth

That to devour layeth

 

But greater still was that miracle

When the Almighty, the King of Creation

Came down to earth a mere babe

To show mankind His passion

 

Greater still was that miracle

When Thou Oh Lord! Supreme Divine

Wert crucified on that shameful cross

To call me, a sinner, Thine!!
