Third Day's song 'I Need a Miracle' tells the stories of two people in desperate situations—a woman whose husband has left and a man who has lost his job and contemplates suicide. Both cry out to God for a miracle, and the man finds hope through a song on the radio. The lyrics emphasize that no matter who you are or what you've done, there are times when you can't make it on your own, and in those moments, prayer and faith can bring a miracle. The song encourages listeners to turn to God in their darkest hours.

Well, late one night, she started to cry and thought, "He ain't coming home"

She was tired of the lies, tired of the fight, but she didn't want to see him go

She fell on her knees and said, "I haven't prayed since I was young

But Lord above, I need a miracle"


Well no matter who you are and no matter what you've done

There will come a time when you can't make it on your own

And in your hour of desperation

Know you're not the only one

Prayin', "Lord above, I need a miracle

I need a miracle"


He lost his job and all he had in the fall of '09

Now he feared the worst, that he would lose his children and his wife

So he drove down deep into the woods and thought he'd end it all

And prayed, "Lord above, I need a miracle"


Well no matter who you are and no matter what you've done

There will come a time when you can't make it on your own

And in your hour of desperation

Know you're not the only one

Prayin', "Lord above, I need a miracle

I need a miracle"


La dda dda dda

La dda dda dda

La dda dda dda

Wooooooooah!

La dda dda dda

La dda dda dda

La dda dda dda

Wooooooooah!


He turned on the radio to hear a song for the last time

He didn't know what he was looking for, or even what he'd find

The song he heard gave him hope and strength to carry on

And on that night they found a miracle

They found a miracle


La dda dda dda

La dda dda dda

La dda dda dda

Wooooooooah!


And in your hour of desperation

Know you're not the only one

Prayin', "Lord above, I need a miracle"


"Lord above, I need a miracle"
