Traces of Glory

He was followed by a multitude 
As He walked from town to town 
Anywhere that Jesus went 
A miracle was found 

For they came to see Him raise the dead 
And cause the blind to see 
As they watched His miracles 
It even caused some to believe 

At the wedding supper 
He turned the water into wine 
He blessed the bread and fishes 
So five thousand souls could dine 

His disciples were all gathered 
Off the shores of Galilee 
And when they saw their Master 
He was walking on the sea 

It would take a thousand lifetimes 
To tell His miracle story 
But the fingerprints He left behind 
Were just traces of His Glory
