Analysis of Miracle



I prayed for a miracle a long time ago.
 God asked me to be patient and in time I would know.

What was this miracle, he was to bestow?
 I was so eager and excited, I just wanted to know.

Be patient my child and in time you will see.
 These miracles are all lined up and they are amazing said he.

So I waited and wondered about what was in store.
 When the 1st one was delivered, I just couldn't ask for more.

What did I get? I'm sure you don't have a clue.
 Something so amazing and that person was you.

YES! You were the miracle that entered my life.
 And I pray that someday you'll be my wife.
