Miracle For The Towns Family










Miracle For The Towns Family



I've taught so many children here

Whole families I know.

I loved the twins, her sisters,

Knew them long years ago.

Then Friday Kristy came to class,

A smile upon her face.

"Nakiesha had her baby,"

Just one small pound she weighs.



I felt like crying sitting there--

Sweet preemie born too soon!

The world is filled with so much pain,

And so much hurt and gloom.

I felt like weeping when I thought

Of the Godly grandma dear.

She taught her girls to live for God,

That faith could ravage fear.



I listened to young Kristy's tale

About the teeny babe.

I knew that whole big family

Had hit their knees to pray.

My heart was reaching out in faith,

Somehow inside I knew.

She said, "They named her 'Miracle'."

Then I was smiling too.



Speak out in faith, when troubles come

To circle 'round your life.

Just call on God to make a way,

For children, husband, wife.

And even if the answer's "no",

God has a reason why.

Just stand in faith and some sweet day

We'll hear it by and by.

There's no words I can say for this one.
It's a heart breaker. I'll pray for 'Miracle' too.
