The Miracle of Life

The Miracle of Life

(Psalm 36:9)

  1. 1. Ev’ry newborn child, Ev’ry drop of rain,

    Ev’ry golden ray of sun, Each head of grain—

    All are gifts from God; They reveal his way.

    Miracles performed by him sustain us each day.

    (CHORUS)

    So, what are we to do with a gift so rare

    But to love the One who gave it and show him we care.

    No matter what we do, We never can earn it.

    This gift is still a gift​—The miracle of life.

  2. 2. Others may give up, Lose their will to try,

    Echoing the wife of Job: “Curse God and die.”

    We are not that way; Praise to God we give,

    Thanking him for ev’ry precious moment we live.

    (CHORUS)

    So, what are we to do with a gift so rare

    But to love the ones around us and show them we care.

    No matter what we do, We never can earn it.

    This gift is still a gift​—The miracle of life.
