When You Believe (from The Prince of Egypt)

Many nights we've 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

(Ooh, yeah) mmh, yeah

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'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 (mmh)

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, ah

And it's easy to give in to your fear, uh, oh

But when you're blinded by your pain

Can't see your way clear through the rain

A small but still resilient voice says, "Help is very near," oh

There can be miracles (miracles) when you believe (oh, when you believe)

Though hope is frail, it's hard to kill (hard to kill, oh yeah)

Who knows what miracles you can achieve? (You can achieve, oh)

When you believe, somehow you will (somehow, somehow, somehow)

Now you will (no, no, no, no)

You will when you (when you) believe (oh)

You will when you, you will when you believe

Just believe, oh, believe

Just believe

You will when you believe
