Lyrics

(Em)Man y nights we’ve (D)prayed

with (Bm7)no proof an y (Em)one could hear.

In our hearts a (Cmaj7)hope ful song we (Am7)bare ly un der stood.

Now (E)we are not a fraid,

al (D)though we know there’s (Asus4)much to (A)fear.

(Cmaj7)We were mov ing moun tains long be (Am7)fore we knew we could.

There can be mir a cles

when you be lieve.

Though hope is frail,

it’s (Cmaj7)hard to kill.

Who knows what mir a cles

you can a chieve?

When you be lieve,

some (Cmaj7)how you will,

you will when (D)you be lieve.

(Em)Eas y to de spair

when (Bm7)all you hear is (Em)fear and lies.

Eas y just to (Cmaj7)run and hide; too (Am7)fright ened to be gin.

But (E)if we dare to (D)dare,

don’t wait for an swers from the skies.

Each of us can (G)look in side and (Am7)hear this song with in.

There can be mir a cles

when you be lieve.

Though hope is (C#m)frail,

it’s (Dmaj7)hard to kill.

Who knows what mir a cles

you can a chieve?

When you be lieve,

some (D)how you will,

you will when (E)you be lieve.

(C#7)They don’t (F#m)al ways hap pen when you ask.

And it’s eas y to give in to your fear.

But when you’re blind ed by your pain, can’t see your way clear through the rain, a small but still re sil ient voice says (Esus4)hope is ver y (D)near.

(B)Oh.

(There can be mir a cles when you be lieve.)

Though hope is (D#m)frail,

it’s (Emaj7)hard to kill.

Who knows what mir a cles

you can a chieve?

When you be lieve,

some (E)how you will,

(Now you will.) and now you will.

You will when (E)you be lieve.

You will when you be lieve.
