Music for Mommies Monday-Sometimes Miracles Hide

A few months back, friends of ours were faced with the news that their baby might have a disability. It was a very trying time, and thankfully our prayers were answered and all tests came back negative. During that time I was reminded of a song I heard a few years back and I wanted to highlight it.

While searching the internet to find 'help' for my friend, as if a Google search could actually begin to be of help to her, I was astounded at just how many babies that are diagnosed with disabilities are released from the womb rather then allowed a chance at life. Special needs babies have some amazingly special mommies.

I hope you enjoy this song as I do.

Sometimes Miracles Hide
by Dallas Holm

They were so excited it was coming to be, two people so in love
and now soon there would be three,
For many years they planned it, now soon it would be true,
She was picking out the pink clothes, he was looking at the blue.

The call came unexpected the doctor had bad news,
Some tests came back and things weren't right,
said you're gonna have to choose,
'I'll wait a week for your decision' and then the words cut like a
knife,
'I'm sure everyone will understand if you want to end its life'.

Though they were badly shaken they just had no choice,
Because they knew God creates no accidents and they were sure they
heard His voice Sayin'.

(chorus)
sometimes miracles hide,
and God will wrap some blessings in disguise
and you may have to wait this lifetime
to see the reasons with your eyes,
cause sometimes miracles hide

It seemed before they knew it the appointed day arrived,
with eager apprehension they could barely hold inside,
The first time they laid eyes on her confirmed the doctors fears
but they held onto God promise they were sure they both could hear.

(chorus)
Sometimes miracles hide,
and God will wrap some blessings in disguise
and you may have to wait this lifetime
to see the reasons with your eyes,
cause sometimes miracles hide

Though she was not like the other girls they thought she was the best,
and through all the years of struggle neither whispered one regret.
And the first day that she started school and took her first bus ride,
they'd remembered the words that God had spoke and they both broke down
and cried.

You see to them it did not matter why some things in life take place,
cause they just knew the joy they felt when they'd look into her face.

They learned that sometimes miracles hide,
they said God Has wrapped our blessing in disguise and
we may have to wait this lifetime to see the reasons with our eyes,
we know sometimes miracles hide. We've learned sometimes miracles hide.
