I Need a Miracle
Heritage Singers Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Listen while you read!
Little girl sitting in her mother's arm with sadness in her eyes
The Doctor said "I'm sorry ma'am, there's just no hope in sight"
The Family gathered around her and on their knees began to pray
As the tears fell like rain, you can hear her mother says

Lord, I need a miracle today
Please just let one pass my way

I believe in you
Help me overcome this fear inside
This pain's too much for me to hide
Lord see me through
I need a miracle from you

The drunken man stumbled in the church house
'cause he had no place to go
The lost all his family, left him grieving in his soul
The preacher stood and spoke of how Jesus loves you anyway
With the choice he had to run or stay, the man bowed his head and prayed

Lord, I need a miracle today
Please just let one pass my way
I believe in you
Help me overcome this fear inside
This pain's too much for me to hide
Lord see me through
I need a miracle from you

Little girl is now a wife with kids of her own
And the man who bowed his head
Lead many to the throne

Lord, I need a miracle today
Please just let one pass my way
I believe in you
Lord, I need a miracle today
Please just let one pass my way
I believe in you
Help me overcome this fear inside
This pain's too much for me to hide

Lord see me through
I need a miracle from you

Overall Meaning

The song "I Need a Miracle" by Heritage Singers tells two stories of people who were in desperate need of a miracle in their lives. The first story is about a little girl who was very sick and the doctors said there was no hope for her. Her family gathered around her and prayed to God for a miracle. The second story is about a man who was struggling with alcoholism and had lost all his family. He stumbled into a church one day and heard a sermon about how Jesus loves everyone, including him. The man prayed to God for a miracle to help him overcome his addiction.

These two stories show the power of prayer and the belief in a higher power to bring about change and miracles in people's lives. The lyrics express the emotional pain and fear that people experience in difficult times, and the need for divine intervention to provide hope and healing.

The chorus of the song expresses both the desperation and the faith of the people in need of a miracle. They cry out to God, "Lord, I need a miracle today, please just let one pass my way, I believe in you, help me overcome this fear inside, this pain's too much for me to hide, Lord see me through, I need a miracle from you."

Overall, "I Need a Miracle" is a powerful song that speaks to the human experience of struggle and desperation, and the hope and faith that can bring about change and miracles in our lives.
