Lyrics Jason Gray – Forgiveness Is A Miracle (A Song For Joseph) / Man Of Mercy
Text:
Love can make a soul come alive
Love can draw a dream out of the darkness
And blow every door open wide
But love can leave you brokenhearted
Did she dare to look you in the eye
Did her betrayal leave you raging?
Did you let her see you cry
When she said the child was not your baby?
Pain can turn to anger then to vengeance
It happens time and again
Even in the best of men
It takes a miracle to save us
When love is like an open wound
There’s no way to stop the bleeding
Did you lose sleep over what to do?
Between what’s just and what brings healing
Pain can be a road to find compassion
When we don’t understand
And bring a better end
It takes a miracle to show us
Forgiveness is a miracle
A miracle
And a miracle can change your world
Forgiveness is a miracle
An angel in a dream spoke into your darkest night
So you trusted in the Lord and you took her as your wife
But the forgiveness that you gave would be given back to you
Because you carried in your heart what she was holding in her womb
Love was in a crowded barn
There you were beside her kneeling
As the miracle started breathing
Forgiveness is the miracle
The miracle
And a miracle will change your world
Forgiveness is the miracle
Forgiveness is the miracle
The miracle
And a miracle will save the world
Forgiveness is the miracle
Blessed Joseph, your heart is proven
And through you the Kingdom has come
For God delights in a man of mercy
And has found an earthly father for his son
