The Miracle

Every drop of rain that falls
In Sahara desert says it all- it's a miracle
All God's creations great and small
The Golden Gate and the Taj Mahal- that's a miracle
Test tube babies being born
Mothers, fathers dead and gone- it's a miracle

We're having a miracle on Earth
Mother nature does it all for us
The wonders of this world go on
The hanging gardens of Babylon
Captain Cook and Cain and Abel
Jimi Hendrix to the tower of Babel
It's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle

The one thing we're all waiting for
Is peace on Earth- an end to war
It's a miracle we need- the miracle
The miracle we're all waiting for today

If every leaf on every tree could tell a story
That would be a miracle
If every child on every street had clothes to wear and food to eat
That's a miracle If all
God's people could be free, to live in perfect harmony
It's a miracle

We're having a miracle on Earth
Mother nature does it all for us
(The wonders of this world go on)

Open hearts and surgery, Sunday mornings with a cup of tea
Super powers always fighting, but Mona Lisa just keeps on smiling
It's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle

(The wonders of this world go on)
Well it's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle, it's a miracle
The one thing (the one thing) we're all waiting for (waiting for)
Is peace on Earth (peace on Earth) and an end to war (end to war)
It's a miracle we need, the miracle, the miracle
Peace on Earth and end to war today

That time will come, one day you'll see, when we can all be friends
That time will come, one day you'll see, when we can all be friends
That time will come, one day you'll see, when we can all be friends
That time will come, one day you'll see, when we can all be friends

Miracolul se desfasoara in fiecare zi sub ochii nostri, care nu stiu adesea sa vada: fiecare clipa lasata de Dumnezeu este un miracol si fiecare lucru, cat de marunt, din alcatuirea lumii isi are rostul lui perfect calculat ("every drop of rain that falls in Sahara desert"). Si asta este, cu adevarat, un miracol! Totul este minunat in lume, de la cele mai neinsemnate ("Sunday morning with a cup of tea") la cele mai marete ("the Hanging Gardens of Babylon"). Dar cat de frumos ar putea fi univesul daca nu ar exista saracie ("if every child on every street had clothes to wear and food to eat"), daca oamenii s-ar iubi mai mult ("if all God's people could be free to live in perfect harmony"). Adevaratul miracol pe care il asteptam este cel al pacii ("peace on Earth and end to war"), al bunei intelegeri intre oameni, al clipei in care fiecare va vedea in fiecare semenul sau ("when we can all be friends").

Muzica este optimista si originala, in nota stilistica a albumului, deosebit, poate, si datorita faptului ca toate melodiile sunt compozitii comune ale membrilor trupei (acest album, ca si celelalte doua care il vor urma, poate fi considerat monument al solidaritatii in fata suferintei).
