When You Believe

Many nights we prayed

With no proof, anyone could hear

In our hearts a hope for a song

We barely understood

Now we are not afraid

Although we know there's much to fear

We were moving mountains

Long before we knew we could, whoa, yes

There can be miracles

When you believe

Though hope is frail

It's hard to kill

Who knows what miracles

You can achieve

When you believe somehow you will

You will when you believe

Mmm yeah

In this time of fear

When prayer so often proves in vain

Hope seems like the summer bird

Too swiftly flown away

Yet now I'm standing here

My hearts so full, I can't explain

Seeking faith and speaking' words

I never thought I'd say

There can be miracles

When you believe (When you believe)

Though hope is frail

It's hard to kill (Mmm)

Who knows what miracles

You can achieve (You can achieve)

When you believe somehow you will

You will when you believe

(Hey)

(Ooh)

They don't always happen when you ask

And it's easy to give in to your fears

But when you're blinded by your pain

Can't see the way, get through the rain

A small but still, resilient voice

Says hope is very near, oh (Oh)

There can be miracles (Miracles)

When you believe (Boy, when you believe, yeah) (Though hope is frail)

Though hope is frail (It's hard)

It's hard to kill (Hard to kill, oh, yeah)

Who knows what miracles

You can achieve (You can achieve, oh)

When you believe somehow you will (Somehow, somehow, somehow)

Somehow you will (I know, I know, know)

You will when you believe (When you)

(Oh oh)
