Many nights we've prayed
with no proof anyone could hear
In our hearts a hope for a song
We barely understood
Now we are not afraid
Although we know there's much to fear
We were moving mountains
Long before we ever knew we could
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 proved in vain
Hope seemed like the summer birds
Too swiftly flown away
Yet now I'm standing here
With heart so full I can't explain
Seeking faith and speaking words
I never thought I'd say
*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...*
They dont 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 the way, get throught the rain
A small but still, resilient voice
Says hope is very near
Repeat *
Oh yes, it's Mariah Carey again, but she's singing duet with Whitney Houston this time.
Hey 5K fellows, do you all still remember this song? We had sung this song before for the inter-class choir singing competition held during English Fortnight. We sang this with Miss Assunta's guidance, and although we won no prizes, this song has been instilled in many of us and me. To tell the truth, i'd already memorised(alright, actually i never intended to memorise it, it just goes into my mind and is then being stored in the long-term memory without realising) every single word of the lyrics.
This song recalls a lot of my high school memories. And too, the miracle of Obama winning as the newly elected United States president.
Come to think of it, Obama can be a president, so why can't you? Well, you may not be able to be a country leader in the future, but, who knows what miracles you can achieve?
Remember, you will when you believe.
