When one door of happiness closes,
another opens.
But often we look so long at the closed door
that we do not see the one
that has been opened for us.

When You Believe

Many nights we pray
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 miracle
When you believe
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill
Who knows what miracle
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 seems like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away
And now I'm standing here
My hearts 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 fear
But when you're blinded by your pain
Can't see your way safe through the rain
Thought of a still resilient voice
Says love is very near

(Chorus)
