Lyrics
Verse 1
Flashing red and blue lights on a dark midnight road,
Twisted metal, shattered glass, no one had hope.
Looked like another name for the headlines,
Another mama gettin’ the call she dreads.
But the door swung open, they walked away,
Couldn’t explain it, but heaven knew…
What should’ve been a tragedy
Turned into a miracle when He came through.
Chorus
Then God showed up - right on time,
When hope was gone and the answer was “no.”
When the night was long and the prayers ran dry,
That’s when heaven moved and mercy flowed.
You can’t stop Him, you can’t slow Him down,
When He steps in, chains get broke.
It ain’t luck, it ain’t chance, it’s amazing grace -
Everything changes when God shows up.
Verse 2
Empty nursery, folded clothes,
Years of prayin’ with unanswered cries.
Every test said “try again,”
Every tear fell from hopeful eyes.
Then a phone call came outta nowhere,
Said, “There’s a child that needs your love.”
What they couldn’t carry in their own arms,
Came as a gift handed down from above.
Chorus
Then God showed up - right on time,
Turned heartbreak into holy ground.
What they never saw comin’
Came wrapped in grace, heaven-sent.
You can’t plan Him, you can’t predict His ways,
But mercy always shows.
From barren places to brand-new life -
Everything changes when God shows up.
Verse 3
Cancer words and chemo days,
Hair on the pillow, strength worn thin.
Battles fought on bathroom floors,
Just tryin’ to breathe it in.
But the Great Physician walked in the room,
When the report said “no more hope.”
Now there’s a scar where fear used to live,
And a testimony that God wrote.
Bridge
When the world says “It’s over,”
When the odds say “You’re done,”
There’s a God who’s never late,
And He ain’t even begun.
He still parts seas, still rolls stones,
Still speaks life into dust -
If you need a miracle tonight,
Just hang on… He’s about to show up.
Chorus
Then God showed up - right on time,
When nobody else could help me through.
What the enemy meant for defeat
Turned into a hallelujah.
There’s only one name that changes things,
Only one power we can trust -
From the crash, to the crib, and the chemo room,
Everything changes when God shows up.
Yeah… if you’re standin’ in the middle of a mess,
Just Hold on -
God’s about to show up.
