Volunteers come from all over the world
Just to help these kids
Of any age
They come to bring them the best of days
Even with cancer among them
They are still able to have fun
This is a miracle
That this camp has been going on
For how long?
25 years.
Yes, that long
Councelors come back over and over
Just to see the kids faces again
Campers come back over and over
Soon changing to councelors
All here
To help those kids
They may have cancer
But cancer does not have them
They can still be that kid
They are still that kid
All of them are kids
Just the cancer hurts them
But maybe
With just one little miracle
We can make a change
A change for these kids lives
A week they look forward to
A week where they are out of the hospital
A week with no pain
Only friends
A week that lasts forever
The memories keep us moving
Keep us fighting
Making us a survivor
Of this cancer
But of those who have not survived
You can not say that have not tried
They have
The cancer still did not have them
But God does have them
They needed that miracle
Of the pain leaving for not just a week
But for life
They are angels now
And we have a memorial
On one night during that week
To remember them
And every night
The stars are out
And the angels are flying about.
The angels
That carry that little miracle
On and on.
That one little miracle
Has turned into a huge miracle
That will change these kids life
This camp will go on forever
And we will always remember
Those small little miracles
That have come into our life.
