    I believe that the greatest miracles performed by our Savior are not done with loaves or fishes, but are wrought within the hearts of men. At Jesus' touch our eyes are opened, our hands are strengthened, our souls are fed; and by his power we receive the greatest healing of all--forgiveness. Though I would love to have watched the mighty outward manifestations of his power, I am even more awed by the unseen miracles he has wrought in me.

      Lyrics:

      Savior divine, thou who hast made me whole
      What joy is mine! What words can my gratitude tell?
      Dark were mine eyes, made by thy power to see
      Withered the hands, raised now in praise unto thee

      Hushed was my voice, ringing now joyful in song
      Frail was my will, weakness in thee made strong

      Oh Savior divine!
      How great is the miracle born of thy power and infinite love
      Ever thy name shall I praise
      Ever of thee shall I sing
      And glorify God by the miracle wrought in me

      Weary and lame, lifted and healed at thy hand
      Laid at thy feet, risen before thee to stand
      Hungered my soul, fed by thy word and filled
      Anguished the cries thou in thy mercy hast stilled

      Dry now the tears wept in the sorrow of sin
      Grief thou hast born, thou hast my ransom been


      This song is part of the Jesus, Once of Humble Birth cantata.
