[Intro] C G Am G F (x2) [Verse 1] C G Am G F Doctors have come from distant cities C G Am just to see me stand over my bed G F disbelieving what they're seeing [Chorus] C G Am they say I must be one of the wonders G F of God's own creation C G Am and as far as they can see they can offer G F no explanation [Verse 2] (same pattern of chords as verse 1) (C G Am G F) newspapers ask intimate questions want confessions they reach into my head to steal the glory of my story [Chorus] C G Am they say I must be one of the wonders G F of God's own creation C G Am and as far as they can see they can offer G F no explanation [Bridge] Dm C Am F I believe Dm C Am F fate smiled and destiny Am F laughed as she came to my cradle Am F "know this child will be able" Am F laughed as my body she lifted Am F "know this child will be gifted Am F C G Am with love, with patience and with faith, G F she'll make her way" [Verse 3] (just like verses 1 & 2) people see me I'm a challenge to your balance, I'm over your heads how I confound you and astound you to know I must be one the wonders of... [Chorus] C G Am they say I must be one of the wonders G F of God's own creation C G Am and as far as they can see they can offer G F no explanation [Bridge] Dm C Am F I believe Dm C Am F fate smiled and destiny Am F laughed as she came to my cradle Am F "know this child will be able" Am F laughed as my body she lifted Am F "know this child will be gifted Am F C G Am with love, with patience and with faith, G F she'll make her way"
