Miracle Age

John Mark Thomas


When I was the age of thirteen 
I was so sure of exactly two things 
That I was just too young 
And that one day I would grow up 
I just thought it was some magical thing 
That one day I'd wake up with perfect faith 

Well I'm 21 now -- It's the Miracle Age 
'Cause I'm all grown up now or so they say 
And though I've grown so much of late 
I know I'm still so young in so many ways 

Well I knew that I didn't know much 
But now I think that I knew even less than I thought 
'Cause you know I was just a kid 
With some crazy dreams in my head 
But now I know growth comes through pain 
Yet I'm still seeking You all the same 

And I know that I'm not really wise 
But I'm beginning to realize 
That growing up's never quite done 
But I can see that that's half the fun
