It’s not that usual when everything is beautiful
It’s just another ordinary miracle today
The sky knows when its time to snow
You 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 raindrop falls
It’s just another ordinary miracle today
Birds in winter have their fling
And 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 are all a part
Of the ordinary miracle
It seems so exceptional
Things just work out after all
It’s just another ordinary miracle today
The sun comes up and shines so bright
It disappears again at night
It’s just another ordinary miracle today
In life miraculous things happen around us all the time, right on schedule, that we stop seeing. Like the setting sun, the changing season, blooming flowers, or frost covered windowpanes. Ordinary things go unnoticed. I think the same could be said with us. Our lives consist of basically the same routine, some might say very mundane, but as ordinary as our lives are, we're extraordinary in our own way. The things we do and how we live makes us anything but ordinary. Each of us a gift. Each of us a miracle.

This is one of my favorite songs. It's a great reminder of all of those miracles that, like you said, go unnoticed by us but still happen all around us everyday. Thanks for this post. I love it.
I don't remember that song, but the lyrics are great. Love that Sarah McLachlan. Great photos, too.
I remember that song from the movie and I loved it.
extraordinary thoughts today.
This is one of my favorite songs! I love it and posted about it last year whent he movie came out. I have some of the same feelings that you shared today. I am in miracle mode as I believe, that we had a miracle happen in our lives this week with our Hunter.
There is much truth to be said that when we stop looking - we stop seeing. We stop experiencing and we stop growing.
Thanks for the reminder of the simple lyrics that I love!
My kids fall asleep to the soundtrack from that movie almost every night. The whole thing is gorgeous and very moving. When they wake up they always want to hear this song because it is on the end and they have usually fallen asleep before they hear it. It is the only non-instrumental song on the soundtrack, but our whole family loves it. Thanks for putting all the lyrics down.
It is my favorite right now too and the name of my blog. I listen to this song everyday.
I have never heard this song and it looks like I am missing out! It seems that at least at one point in everyday, I can't help but think how amazing my girls are. Ordinary miracles is so right.
