When You Believe

[Verse 1]
Dm                C
Many nights we've prayed
     Am          Dm
With no proof anyone could hear
Dm               F
In our hearts, a hopeful song
   Gm          Am
We barely understood
Dm              C
Now we are not afraid
         Am              Dm
Although we know there's much to fear
Bb             F
We were moving mountains long
  Gm              C
Before we knew we could
 
[Chorus]
F                     C/E
There can be miracles when you believe
Dm             C           Bb
Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill
F                       C/E
Who knows what miracles you can achieve
Dm         C          Bb
When you believe, somehow you will
Gm            C     Dm
You will when you believe
 
[Verse 2]
Dm              C
In this time of fear
     Am              Dm
When prayer so often proves in vain
Dm             F
Hope seems like the summer birds
Gm                Am
Too swiftly flown away
    D                C
Yet now I'm standing here
                   Gsus4   G
My heart so full I can't explain
Bb                F
Seeking faith and speaking words
  Gm                C
I never thought I'd say
