When You Believe (from The Prince of Egypt)

Many nights, we prayed

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, oh 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

In this time of fear

When prayer so often proves in vain

Hope seems like the summer birds

Too swiftly flown away

Yet now, I'm standing here

My heart 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 fears

But when you're blinded by your pain

Can't see the way clear through the rain

A small but still resilient voice

Says help is very near

There can be miracles (Miracles)

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 (Somehow, somehow, somehow)

Now you will (I know, I know, know)

You will when you believe (When you)

You will when you

You will when you believe

Just believe (You will, you will)

Just believe (You will when you believe)
