Lyrics

(Dm)Man y nights we’ve (C)prayed,

with (Am7)no proof an (Dm)y one could hear.

In our hearts a (Bb)hope ful song we (Gm7)bare ly un der (Am7)stood.

Now (D)we are not a (C)fraid,

al though we know there’s (Gsus)much to fear.

(Bb)We were mov ing (F)moun tains long be (C)fore we knew we could.

There can be mir a cles

when you be lieve.

Though hope is (Am)frail,

it’s (Bb)hard to kill.

Who knows what mir a cles

you can a chieve?

When you be (Am7)lieve,

some (Bb)how you will.

You will when (C)you

be (Dm)lieve.

In this time of (C)fear, when (Am7)prayer so of ten (Dm)proves in vain, hope seems like the (Bb)sum mer birds, too (Gm7)swift ly flown a (Am7)way.

Yet, (D)now I’m stand ing (C)here,

my heart so full I (G)can’t ex plain,

(Bb)seek ing faith and (F)speak ing words I (C)nev er thought I’d say:

There can be mir a cles

when you be lieve.

Though hope is (Am)frail,

it’s (Bb)hard to kill.

Who knows what mir a cles

you can a chieve?

When you be (Am7)lieve,

some (Bb)how you will

(Gm7)You (F)will when (C)you

be (F)lieve.

They don’t (C)al ways hap pen when you ask.

(Dm)And it’s (Bb)eas y to give (C)in to your (Fsus)fear.

(F)But (Bb)when you’re blind ed by your pain, can’t (C)see your way clear through the rain, a (Dm7)small but still re sil ient voice says (Gm)help is ver y near.

There can be mir a cles

when you be lieve.

Though hope is (Bm)frail,

it’s (Cmaj7)hard to kill.

Who knows what mir a cles

you can a chieve?

When you be (G)lieve,

some (Cmaj7)how you will,

(Em)now you will.

You will when (D)you

be (Em)lieve.

(CN.C.)You will when you, you will when you

be

(G)lieve,

just be (Em)lieve,

just be (Em)lieve.

You will when you

be (G)lieve.
