Lyrics
Verse 1
I am free, for the first time
leave the years behind
in front of me is open sky
I'm soaring the trees
I can see further than before
Everything's different now,
now that You've ruined my life
Chorus
You took my dreams
and stole my schemes
turned my life upside down
You took my heart
sold every part
and made a miracle
Verse 2
Now I can see
see a new start
the burden's gone
You gave me all the words and melodies
Now I can be at Your feet
Your place for me
everything's beautiful
now that You've ruined my life
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge
And I'm wide awake
And tonight I'm safe (yeah)
In Your arms, I'll sing it out
How you made a miracle...
on top of the trees
I can see further than before
everything's different now...
(Repeat Chorus)
Outro
made a miracle,
made it a miracle

Meaning & Inspiration
Miracle is a rock song that celebrates a life turned upside down by God. The first verse describes feeling free for the first time, leaving the years behind, seeing open sky ahead and soaring above the trees, with a playful line that everything is different now that He has ruined the old life. The chorus says that He took the dreams, stole the schemes, turned life upside down, took the heart and made a miracle.
The second verse describes seeing a new start, the burden gone, and being given the words and melodies, so that the singer can now sit at His feet in the place prepared, with everything beautiful. The bridge says the singer is wide awake and safe, and will sing in His arms about how He made a miracle. The themes follow 2 Corinthians 5:17 on becoming new, Isaiah 43:19 on God doing a new thing, and Psalm 40:2-3 on a new song after rescue. The driving beat and repeated chorus give the song an energetic, joyful tone.
