This might be it
I AM A MIRACLE
by
Rose C Taylor (1973)
And what am I
I am a Man
Born of the womb, to live my span
To pace and step and dream and plan
To sweat and toil and lend a hand
To seek and find and know and learn
To laugh and cry and love and yearn
To rise and fall and wince with pain
To reach the top and fall again
And as I do I know somewhere
That there is one who'll share my fear
And as I reach and take his hand
I come to know and understand
I am a Miracle - That's what I am
For who but Man can reach the moon
Explore the stars - compose a tune
Capture the mood of a setting sun
Give thanks to God when day is done
This much I know and I can tell
That through the years Time's taught me well
It's made me weak - it's made me strong
It's proved me right and found me wrong
It's showed me Heaven and offered me Hell
It's made me rage and scream and yell
Yes I've played Life's game as best as I can
But through it all I never ran
For win or lose I knew somehow
That He'd be there to soothe my brow
And as I reached and took His hand
I came to know and understand
I am a Miracle - That's what I am
