(Bm)Man y nights we (A)pray
with (F#m7)no proof a ny (Bm)one could hear.
In our hearts a hope ful song we (Em7)bare ly un der (F#m)stand.
Now (B)we are not a fraid
al though we know there’s (Esus4)much to fear.
(G)We were mov ing moun tains long be (Em7)fore we knew we (Asus2)could.
There can be mi ra cles
when you be lieve.
Though hope is (F#m)frail
it’s (Gmaj7)hard to kill.
Who knows what mi ra cles
you can a chieve
when you be lieve,
some (Gmaj7)how you will?
You will when (A)you
be lieve.
Ooh.
(Bm)In this time of (A)fear
when (F#m7)prayer so of ten (Bm)proves in vain, hope seems like the sum mer birds, too (Em7)swift ly flown a (F#m)way.
Yet (B)now I’m stand ing (A)here,
my heart’s so full I (Esus4)can’t ex plain,
(G)seek ing faith and speak ing words I (Em7)nev er thought I’d (A)say.
There can be mi ra cles
when you be lieve.
Though hope is (G#m)frail
it’s (Amaj7)hard to kill.
Who knows what mi ra cles
you can a chieve
when you be lieve
some (Amaj7)how you will.
You will when (B)you
be lieve.
They don’t al ways hap pen when
you ask.
And it’s ea sy to give in to your fears.
But when you’re blind ed by your pain, can’t see your way straight through the rain, a small but still re sil ient voice
says (Bsus4)love is ve ry (B)near.
There can be mi ra cles
when you be lieve.
Though hope is (A#m)frail
it’s (A#m)hard to kill.
Who knows what mi ra cles
you can a chieve
when you be (A#m7)lieve,
some (Bmaj7)how you will?
(F#)Now you will.
You will when (C#)you
be (D#m)lieve.
You will when you
be (F#)lieve.
You will when you
be (F#)lieve.
