Grace Graber has released "More Than A Miracle" to radio this week, a song written with Jonathan Cyphers to confidently laud God's powerful faithfulness.
"God is bigger than just the things we pray for," the pop-punk songstress reflects. "I believe this is a song on the album that deserves a moment in the spotlight."
The song is part of Graber's debut full-length album, The Breakthrough, which dropped in August. That collection has spawned singles such as "Grace of God" and title track "Breakthrough."
Grace Graber wrote "More Than A Miracle" with Tyler Moody and Jonathan Cyphers. Through a declarative chorus, the track honors the truth that God is powerful and fully worthy of our trust -- even if He doesn't deliver the miracles we might hope for in our limited human wisdom. The song quickly became deeply personal for Moody.
"We wrote this song a year before it released. The week that it released, I was diagnosed with cancer," the cowriter reveals. "I had to have a tumor removed. So it really made me put my money where my mouth is. It was like God was saying, 'do you really believe this? Do you really believe that I'm more than a miracle to you?' So this song took on a whole new level of meaning to me, and it really got me through that hard season. I really hope that it gets other people through similar situations."
The song continues the rise of Grace Graber's uniquely authentic blend of punk rock with a truly worshipful center. With her heart on her sleeve, Grace continues to give voice to the full range of human experience, acknowledging that deep struggles can coexist with profound grace.
"God you hold the stars
I'm captivated just by who you are
So I will take this bruised and breaking heart
And lay it at your feet
I will still believe
You're more than a miracle to me."
"We can't control what happens in our lives, but we can control how we respond," Tyler Moody concludes. "This song is just a reminder that God is good, no matter what, and we can find a lot of freedom in trusting in that."
