Jump to: Overall Meaning | Line by Line Meaning
Greetings give thanks for life
Give thanks for the people of the world
My Lord, my Lord, my Lord
Verse 1:
How many souls you're trying to hide
In a world of elusion that's covering your mind
Rasta show you something good, brothers in the wood
When you open your mind, you discover the sign
That there's something you're longing to find
Chorus:
It's the miracle of love,
That's take away your pain
It's the miracle of love,
When it comes your way again
Verse 2:
Who is the night that covers up your fear
Tender is the one that wipes away your tear
There must be no humanity, why people act so viciously
They say the greatest power can hurt the most dangerously
Brothers in the woods, Rasta show you something good
When you open your heart, you can make the new start
When your crumbling world falls apart
Chorus
Verse 3:
Teach them, miracle, miracle, miracle, miracle
As I say, brothers in the wood
Rasta show you something good
When you open your mind you discover the sign
That there's something you're longing to find
Chorus
The lyrics of Anthony B's "Miracle of Love" seem to be about finding hope and love in a world full of fear and pain. In the first verse, the singer talks about how people try to hide their souls and cover their minds with delusions. But when they open their minds and hearts, they can find a sign that there is something they are longing to find. The chorus emphasizes the idea that love is a miracle that can take away pain and bring hope when it comes your way again.
In the second verse, the singer talks about how fear can cover people's hearts and how humanity can act viciously. But there are still good things in the world, represented by the "brothers in the woods" and the Rasta movement that is trying to show people something good. The singer encourages the listener to open their heart and make a new start when their world falls apart.
In the third verse, the phrase "teach them, miracle, miracle, miracle, miracle" is repeated. This may be a call to spread the message of love and hope to others. The chorus is repeated again to emphasize the power of love as a miracle that can transform lives.
Overall, the song seems to be a message of hope in a world that can sometimes feel overwhelming and full of fear. The idea that love is a miracle that can take away pain and bring hope is a powerful message that can resonate with many listeners.

Read Full BioAnthony B is the stage name of Keith Blair (born March 31, 1976), a Jamaican musician.
Blair grew up in rural Clarks Town in the northwestern parish of Trelawny. His deeply religious family life (his mother was a Seventh-day Adventist and his grandmother a Revivalist) imbued him with a profound spirituality. During his youth, his favorite singers were reggae legends Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, and Bunny Wailer, musicians who strongly influenced his own style. Peter Tosh's influence can definitely be heard in Anthony B's vocal delivery and revolutionary stance.
Anthony B adopted Rastafarian beliefs as a teenager, a decision which was not well-received by his family. The stubborn and determined Anthony B refused to give up his new religion and his dreadlocks and moved to the home of his aunt and uncle in the Kingston suburb, Portmore.
While attending high school, Anthony B debuted as a deejay for the local sound system, Shaggy Hi-Power. In 1988, he befriended reggae artists such as Determine, Mega Banton, Ricky General and Terror Fabulous.
At this point in the reggae industry, singing "slack" songs about women was the popular thing to do. Anthony B did not believe in degrading women and chose to pen politically-slanted songs rather than so-called "gyal chunes." He hooked up with Little Devon the Half Pint sound-a-like singer he made his debut single "The Living is Hard" on the Wizard label in 1993. Anthony B tried many different producers but found that none of them fit his style of music. Finally, Anthony B teamed up with Richard "Bello" Bell, creating hits such as Fire Pon Rome, Raid Di Barn, Rumour, and Repentance Time. Anthony B's 1996 debut album Real Revolutionary was highly acclaimed in the reggae community. In late 1997, Anthony B released Universal Struggle which showed that Anthony B had a consistent, high-calibre talent. Anthony B has released a large number of albums since that time including 1999's Seven Seals and 2004's Untouchable which featured collaborations with artists including Wyclef Jean.
Anthony B tours extensively in Europe and North America and is known for his fiery, high-energy performances.
Anthony B is a member of the Bobo Ashanti branch of the Rastafarian movement. "Bobo Dreads", as they are known, are recognizable by their long robes and turbans. The strong Afrocentric pride and the other Rastafarian beliefs (or "overstandings" as Rastafarians prefer to call them) which Anthony B holds are reflected in his songs.
