Well, late one night, she started to cry and thought he ain't coming home
She was tired of the lies
Tired of the fight, but she didn't want to see him go
She fell on her knees and said
I haven't prayed since I was young
But Lord above I need a miracle

Well no matter who you are and no matter what you've done
There will come a time when you can't make it on your own
And in your hour of desperation
Know you're not the only one
praying Lord above, I need a miracle
I need a miracle

He lost his job and all he had in the fall of '09
Now he feared the worst
That he would lose his children and his wife
So he drove down deep into the woods and thought he'd end it all
And prayed, Lord above, I need a miracle

Well no matter who you are and no matter what you've done
There will come a time when you can't make it on your own
And in your hour of desperation
Know you're not the only one, praying
Lord above, I need a miracle
I need a miracle

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
Whoa oh
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
Whoa oh

He turned on the radio to hear a song for the last time
He didn't know what he was looking for even what he'd find
The song he heard gave him hope and strength to carry on
And on that night, they found a miracle
They found a miracle

La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
Whoa oh

In your hour of desperation
Know you're not the only one, praying
Lord above, I need a miracle
Lord above I need a miracle
