Carlton C. Buck & John W. Peterson
Creation shows the power of God,
There's glory all around,
And those who see must stand in awe,
For miracles abound.
Chorus
I believe in miracles, I've seen a soul set free,
Miraculous the change in one Redeemed through Calvary;
I've seen the lily push its way up through the stubborn sod;
I believe in miracles, for I believe in God!
I cannot doubt the work of God,
There's glory all around,
And those who see must stand in awe,
For miracles abound.
[chorus]
The love of God! O pow'r divine!
'Tis wonderful to see
The miracles that He has wrought
Should lead to Calvary.

God directs our days
God directs our days, our hours planned with care;
Some with golden rays, some with sorrow's stare.
He moves in ways ascendant, his purpose to effect:
His name declared resplendent, His children to perfect!

What Wondrous Love!
What wondrous love: the Father's care
Upon the lost world set His love—
Before all time, before despair,
The lost He purposed for Above.
Chorus--
What Wondrous Love, that seeks the lost;
What Wondrous Love that called to me.
He counted all and chose the cross:
Triune His Love eternally!
What wondrous love: the Sov'reign Son
Came humbled as a man to dwell;
On earth He lived til it was done—
Our loving Lord Emmanuel.
[chorus]
What wondrous love: the Spirit came
Frail souls to make alive and fill;
Now live, the dead—now walk, the lame—
His purpose both to do and will;
[chorus]
What wondrous love: this triune Love,
Sought us before we first loved Him,
Will bring us home to courts above—
Made perfect without spot or sin!

It Took a Miracle
~ John W. Peterson
(1) 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!
(2) Though here His glory has been shown,
We still can't fully see
The wonders of His might, His throne-
'Twill take eternity.
[chorus]
(3) The Bible tells us of His power
And wisdom all way through,
And every little bird and flower
Are testimonies too.
