When You Believe Lyrics
Many nights we pray
With no proof anyone could hear
And 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 know we could
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
There can be miracles
When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
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 safe through the rain
Thought of a still resilient voice
Says love is very near
There can be miracles (miracles)
When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
You will when you believe
You will when you believe
Just believe
You will when you believe
With no proof anyone could hear
And 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 know we could
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
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
When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
And it's easy to give in to your fear
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see your way safe through the rain
Thought of a still resilient voice
Says love is very near
When you believe (When you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (You can achieve)
When you believe
Somehow you will
You will when you believe
You will when you believe
You will when you believe
Just believe
You will when you believe

A very good production by Mariah And Whitney. A duet very well composed and emotional. The song tells of miracles. Which mankind has forgotten over the years. We ask how could Atlantis be so advanced in technology? Because of MIracles! Once again, a very good song! Gotta listen to it ;) Believe people. Believe and you will achieve! :D
ive loved this song ever since i saw the movie prince of egypt
Very beautiful this song
i like it
Prince of Egypt, all the songs in it is good - especially this one
This song is very beautifully represented by Mariah and Whitney. It basically means that when your at your lowest when you feel like you should just give up, if you believe you can make it through the rough times. Its a great song, with great lyrics.
One of the few Mariah songs i can actually sing with. (why does her voice have to be so damn high?)
dwddwdw
I liked to hear them both together, they are wonderful in their own way, I wish I was older back then to fully understand English.
ok. Is there actually black people replying to this song. I'm not trying to be rude. But Mariah only appealled to a lot of caucasion people when she had that song shake it off and we belong together. honestly. it sounds true enough
