When You Believe
Whitney Houston Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
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
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
(Ooh) mmm, yeah
In this time of fear
When prayer so often proves in vain
Hope seems like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away
Yet now I'm standing here
My hearts so full, I can't explain
Seeking faith and speakin' words
I never thought I'd say
There can be miracles
When you believe (when you believe)
Though hope is frail
It's hard to kill (mmm)
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (you can achieve)
When you believe, somehow you will
You will when you believe
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 hope is very near, oh (oh)
There can be miracles (miracles)
When you believe (boy, when you believe, yeah)
(Though hope is frail) though hope is frail
(It's hard) it's hard to kill (hard to kill, oh, yeah)
Who knows what miracles
You can achieve (you can achieve, oh)
When you believe somehow you will (somehow, somehow, somehow)
Now you will (now I, now I, know)
You will when you believe (when you)
(Oh oh)
(You will when you believe)
(Ooh-ooh) (just believe)
(Just believe)
You will when you believe

Line by Line Meaning
Many nights we prayed
We prayed for a miracle for many nights
With no proof anyone could hear
Without any evidence of our prayers being heard
In our hearts a hope for a song
Our hearts were filled with hope for a miracle
We barely understood
Although we did not fully comprehend what we were hoping for
Now we are not afraid
Despite knowing there is much to be afraid of, we are no longer afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We are aware of the many things that can cause fear
We were moving mountains
We were accomplishing great things
Long before we knew we could, whoa, yes
Before we were even aware of our potential
There can be miracles
Miracles are possible
When you believe
When you have faith
Though hope is frail
Although hope can be fragile
Its hard to kill
It is difficult to destroy
Who knows what miracles
Nobody knows what miracles
You can achieve
You can accomplish
When you believe somehow you will
If you have faith, it will happen somehow
You will when you believe
You will achieve when you have faith
In this time of fear
In a time when many are afraid
When prayer so often proves in vain
When prayer often seems to be unsuccessful
Hope seems like the summer birds
Hope appears fleeting
Too swiftly flown away
Quickly disappearing
Yet now I'm standing here
But despite this, here I am
My hearts so full, I can't explain
My heart is overflowing with emotion
Seeking faith and speakin' words
Searching for faith and expressing myself
I never thought I'd say
In a way that I never would have predicted
They don't always happen when you ask
Miracles do not always happen according to our wishes
And it's easy to give in to your fears
It is easy to be overcome with fear
But when you're blinded by your pain
But even when you feel intense pain
Can't see your way clear through the rain
It is hard to see clearly through the difficulties
A small but still, resilient voice
A small but strong voice
Says hope is very near, oh (oh)
Tells us that hope is close by
Just believe
Have faith
You will when you believe
You will accomplish when you have faith

不 要 效 法 這 個 世 界
只 要 心 意 更 新 而 變 化
叫 你 們 查 驗 何 謂 神 的
善 良 純 全 可 喜 悅 的 旨 意 。

但 那 等 候 耶 和 華 的
必 重 新 得 力 展 翅 上 騰
他 們 奔 跑 也 不 睏 倦
行 走 卻 不 疲 乏 。
