Elevation Worship - Million Little Miracles Lyrics
Lyrics
Verse 1
All my life
I've been carried by grace
Don't ask me how
Cause I can't explain
It's nothing short of a miracle, I'm here
Verse 2
I've got some blessings
That I don't deserve
I've got some scars
But that's how you learn
It's nothing short of a miracle, I'm here
Pre-Chorus 1
I think it over and
It doesn't add up
I know it comes from above
Chorus
I got miracles on miracles
A million little miracles
Miracles on miracles
Count your miracles
One, two, three, four
I can't even count them all
Verse 3
You held me steady
So I wouldn't give up
You opened doors that
Nobody can shut
I hope I never get over what You've done
Verse 4
I wanna live
With an open heart
I wanna live
Like I know who You are
I hope I never get over what You've done
Pre-Chorus 2
It's not coincidence
And it's not luck
I know it comes from above
Chorus
I got miracles on miracles
A million little miracles
Miracles on miracles
Count your miracles
One, two, three, four
I can't even count them all
I got miracles on miracles
A million little miracles
Miracles on miracles
Count your miracles
One, two, three, four
I can't even count them all
Bridge
I can't even
I can't even count them all
I can't even
I can't even count them all
I can't even
I can't even count them all
1-2-3-4
I can't even count them all
I can't even
I can't even count them all
I can't even
I can't even count them all
I can't even
I can't even count them all
One, two, three, four
I can't even count them all
I can't even
I can't even count them all
I can't even
I can't even count them all
I can't even
I can't even count them all
One, two, three, four
I can't even count them all
I can't even
I can't even count them all
I can't even
I can't even count them all
I can't even
I can't even count them all
One, two, three, four
I can't even count them all

I got miracles on miracles
A million little miracles
Miracles on miracles
Count your miracles
I got miracles on miracles
A million little miracles
Miracles on miracles
Count your miracles
One, two, three, four
I can't even count them all

Million Little Miracles | Elevation Worship & Maverick City
Meaning & Inspiration
"Million Little Miracles," released on May 10, 2021, by Elevation Worship and Maverick City, arrives as a vibrant anthem of gratitude, steering the hearts of many towards a profound appreciation for divine providence. Far from a fleeting composition, the song embodies a spiritual awakening to the constant, often overlooked, hand of God in our daily existence. Its central message is a compelling invitation to recognize that life's journey, replete with both blessings and trials, is not a series of random events or mere coincidences, but rather an intricate tapestry woven by a loving, active Creator. The "million little miracles" are the quiet mercies, the sustained breath, the unexpected strength, the protective presence—evidence of God's unwavering faithfulness in every season.
The lyrical journey begins with a humble acknowledgment of unwavering grace. The opening lines, asserting a life "carried by grace" and declaring presence as "nothing short of a miracle," immediately set a tone of profound wonder. This isn't just a poetic statement; it echoes scriptural truths found in passages like Psalm 139, which marvels at the intricate way each individual is fashioned, underscoring that our very being is a testament to God's careful design. Further exploring this theme, the song acknowledges "blessings that I don't deserve" and the wisdom gained from "scars," directly aligning with Romans 5:3-5, where Paul explains that suffering produces perseverance, character, and hope. This perspective transforms personal struggles into opportunities for spiritual growth, reinforcing that even in difficult moments, God’s grace is at work. The pre-chorus's declaration that it "doesn't add up" but "comes from above" beautifully encapsulates the human struggle to comprehend divine wisdom, a sentiment powerfully echoed in Isaiah 55:8-9, which reminds us that God's thoughts and ways are far beyond our own.
The song's infectious chorus, a jubilant counting of "miracles on miracles," serves as a powerful call to intentional thankfulness. It prompts us to shift our focus from what might be lacking to the overwhelming abundance of God's presence, urging an active engagement with gratitude rather than a passive observation. This act of remembering and numbering our blessings directly reflects the spirit of Psalm 40:5, where King David exclaims that God's wonderful deeds and thoughts toward us are too numerous to recount. Moving into later verses, the lyrics paint a picture of God's active involvement: holding steady to prevent giving up and opening doors "that nobody can shut." This imagery powerfully resonates with Philippians 4:13, a cornerstone verse affirming that we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us, and Revelation 3:8, which speaks of an open door that no one can close. These are not abstract concepts but tangible experiences of God's sustaining power and providential guidance.
The song then transitions from reflection to a resolute commitment, articulating a desire to "live with an open heart" and "like I know who You are." This is a spiritual response, a commitment to walk in alignment with God's character and purpose, echoing Proverbs 3:5-6, which admonishes us to trust in the Lord with all our heart and lean not on our own understanding. The repeated assertion that these interventions are "not coincidence and it's not luck" but definitively "comes from above" fortifies the theological backbone of the piece, countering secular explanations and firmly grounding every blessing in divine sovereignty, a truth found in Romans 8:28, affirming that in all things God works for the good of those who love him. The extended bridge, with its repeated, almost meditative refrain of "I can't even count them all," creates a worshipful crescendo, allowing the sheer magnitude of God's goodness to sink deeply into the spirit. It's a moment of overwhelming awe, inviting worshipers to simply rest in the boundless generosity of God, much like the psalmist in Psalm 145:3, who declares the Lord's greatness to be unsearchable. Ultimately, "Million Little Miracles" is more than just a worship song; it's a spiritual exercise in recalibrating perspective, an invitation to see the divine etched into the fabric of everyday life, fostering a deeper faith and an unceasing posture of praise for the countless ways God reveals Himself.
