I believe for every drop of rain that falls a flower grows
I believe that somewhere in the darkest night a candle glows
I believe for everyone who goes astray
Someone will come
To show the way
I believe, I believe

I believe above the storm the smallest prayer will still be heard
I believe that someone in the great somewhere hears every word
Every time I hear a newborn baby cry
Or touch a leaf
Or see the sky
Then I know why I believe

Every time I hear a newborn baby cry
Or touch a leaf
Or see the sky
Then I know why I believe
