Lyrics

Well I have heard of angels and how they earn their wings
Of swinging on the clouds and playing harps and things
And how they watch us through the day and hold us in the night
Find homes for homeless children or in the dark bring light.
On TV they hold trembling hands and dry a falling tear,
It seems whoever needs one will always find one near.
But what of days, days that end with no angel we can see,
What if that hungry heart out there was waiting just for me?

(Chorus)
I can hold that hurting soul. I can dry a tear.
I could be there in the night to pray away a fear.
Should I wait for an angel to hear that stranger?s plea?
What if the miracle that?s needed is Christ in me?

I look all around me and see so much despair,
A world of dying people. Does anybody care?
Well, I know there are wonders, a parting of the sea,
A vision of the Virgin, a holy tapestry
But oh it?s hard to hear Good News with children to be fed
When half the world goes hungry with no place to lay their head.
And what of days, days that end with no miracle to see
What if that hungry child out there is waiting just for me?

(Chorus)
I can hold that hurting soul. I can dry a tear.
I could be there in the night to pray away a fear.
Should I wait for an angel to hear that stranger?s plea?
What if the miracle that?s needed is Christ in me?
The only miracle that?s needed is Christ in me.
