Theme Song: Even a Miracle Needs A Hand

Earlier in our adoption process this song came into my head and I found it quite appropriate. It entered my brain again today and I thought I would share. It's from a Christmas special that is pretty much about Santa Claus but with subtle references to the Christian Faith and the song is a wonderful one about having faith while working hard to achieve something. It seems to apply to the adoption process because there's a mix of working hard and then waiting and having faith that God is in control.

Even A Miracle Needs a Hand

Miracles happen most every day
to people like you and me
but don’t expect a miracle
unless you help make it to be

You hope while I hurry
You pray while I plan
We’ll do what’s necessary cause
Even a miracle needs a hand

You love and I’ll labor
You sit while I stand
Get help from a next door neighbor cause
Even a miracle needs a hand

We’ll help our maker
to make our dreams come true
but I can’t do it alone
So here’s what we’re gonna do

You hope while I hurry
You pray while I plan
We’ll do what’s necessary cause
Even a miracle needs a hand

We’ll help our maker
to make our dreams come true
but we can’t do it alone
So what are we’re gonna do

You wish while I whittle
You drip while I dry
Lets all try to help a little cause
Even a miracle needs a hand
