Ordinary Miracle

My favorite music artist is probably Sarah McLachlan. I have periods where I'll listen to other singers and put Sarah aside, but I always come back to her. I love her voice and I especially appreciate the depth of her lyrics. She writes some good music.

Here is a song that she wrote for Charlotte's Web last year. I hope you enjoy listening to it.(As a side note, the very first picture on the video is Cannon Beach, Oregon - where Marc proposed to me!)


Ordinary Miracle lyrics:

It’s not that unusual
When everything is beautiful.
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

The sky knows when its time to snow,
Don’t need to teach a seed to grow.
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

Life is like a gift they say
Wrapped up for you everyday;
Open up and find a way
To give some of your own.

Isn’t it remarkable?
Like every time a rain drop falls,
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

Birds in winter have their fling
But always make it home by spring.
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

When you wake up everyday
Please don’t throw your dreams away;
Hold them close to your heart
Cause we’re all a part
Of the ordinary miracle.
Ordinary miracle

Do you want to see a miracle?
ohh ohh ohh, ohhh ohh ohh...

It seems so exceptional
That things just work out after all.
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

Sun comes up and shines so bright
And disappears again at night.
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.
ohh ohh ohh, ohh ohhh ohh...
It’s just another ordinary miracle today.

I love that song, thank you for sharing! I had to go to iTunes to check it out. What album would you recommend?

mindy, I'm glad you liked it. I really like "Afterglow" a lot... and I also really like her Christmas CD "Wintersong." You should listen to samples on both and then see which one appeals to you more. :)

I just got caught up on all your postings, great insight on conference.
Poor einstein, now he is not such a man, ah well he is still cute.
Marc, why didn't you paint your face?
megan, love that song.
This Saturday Uncle Bruce and Aunt Marva are getting sealed in the temple, a miracle I never thought I would see. Life is wonderful isn't it?

Marc and Megan said...

Calamity, that is so great about Marva and Bruce! Just this week I had Marc come to seminary with me and share some stories that included Marva and Bruce... I'll have to update the class on the latest of their sealing this weekend. Please be sure to fill us in on how it goes!
