Middle Of A Miracle

Zach Williams' “Middle Of A Miracle” is about trusting God before the answer comes. The first verse admits where the singer stands: in the valley, on barren ground, yet with his best still ahead and his hope not dead. He says it's not a question of if but when God will turn it around for good.

The chorus gives the song its image. “I'm standing in the middle of a miracle, feet planted on promises of the Lord. I'm trusting even when I can't see it all.” The second verse chooses faith over sight, noting that the God who saves is in the in-between, and it asks God to do again what he has done before. The bridge builds on a simple argument: if he is who he says he is, then he will do what he says he will do. The singer repeats that he believes and will see it, and that his God will come through. The closing lines imagine God at work right now, asking who knows what he will do next and affirming that every promise is yes. The song suits seasons of waiting, such as a long illness or a stalled plan, because it speaks of the middle of the story and not its tidy ending. The message is that miracles are often underway before they can be seen.

Walking by faith, not by sight, is 2 Corinthians 5:7. God working all things for good is Romans 8:28, and every promise being yes in Christ is 2 Corinthians 1:20.
