When you Believe

Many nights we pray 
With no proof anyone could hear 

In our hearts a hopeful 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 

[Chorus:]
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 

In this time of fear 
When prayer so often proves in vain 
Hope seems like the summer birds 
Too swiftly flown away 
And now I am standing here 
My heart's so full I can't explain 

Seeking faith and speaking words 
I never thought I'd say 

[Chorus]

They don't always happen when you ask 

And it's easy to give in to your fear 
But when you're blinded by your pain 
Can't see your way clear through the rain 
small but still resilient voice 
Says love is very near 

[Chorus]
