When You Believe song lyrics - Mariah Carey

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

[Chorus:]
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

In this time of fear
When prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seemed 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

[Chorus]

They don't always happen when you ask
And it's easy to give in to your fears
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

[Chorus]

miracles... miracles...

just a quotable quote i have learned today:

"miracles happen when you start to believe..."

haay... oo nga naman... i've been memorizing the song "When You Believe" for more than a month now... but the song's message hasn't really sunk into my heart until this afternoon.

we have only 19 days more to finish everything we need for our upcoming No Bounds Concert on August 22. Haay... kakapressure... but i believe God is teaching us to be more faithful.

we need to believe that God is still a God of miracles... and that He will surely make things happen...

[eto na naman ako... speechless na ulit... haha... back to study mode...]
