When you believe (2007)
Em D Bm Em
1. Many nights we've prayed with no proof anyone could hear,
Em G Am
Bm
in
our hearts a hopeful song we barely understood.
E
D
A
Now we are not afraid although
we know there's much to fear,
Em G Am
Bm
we
were moving mountains long before we knew we could.
G - D
There can be miracles when you believe,
Em D C
though
hope is frail, it's hard to kill.
G
- D
Who knows what miracles you can achieve ?
Em D C
When you believe, somehow you
will,
Am D
Em
you
will when you believe.
Em D
Bm Em
2. Easy to despair when all you hear is fear and lies,
Em G
Am
Bm
easy
just to run and hide, too frightened to begin.
E
D
A
But if we dare to dare, don't
wait for answers from the skies,
Em G Am
D
each
of us can look inside and hear this song within.

happen when you ask,

G - Am - B7
and it's easy to give in to your fears.

But when you're blinded by
your faith,
D Am G
can't
see your way clear through the rain
Em G D D7
a
small but still resilient voice says hope is very near.
