Crystal Lewis - I Believe Lyrics

I Believe is a song about holding onto faith when feelings fail. The first verse describes not being able to feel God's love, pain that will not allow sleep, imagining Him present so that tears dry, and still believing even without seeing. The chorus lists what the singer believes in: love, peace, the hope that He will return, and things unseen, adding "when my heart says no, I still believe."

The second verse says that just when faith seems gone, a sweet voice calls out to hold on, and the singer can breathe again. The last verse believes the sun will shine again and loneliness will end, with a promise to stand and wait until the voice is heard, forever and always. Because the words speak to a loved one without naming him, the lines are best read as a prayer to Jesus. The themes follow Hebrews 11:1 on faith in what is unseen, John 20:29 on believing without seeing, and John 14:3 on His promise to come again. The steady refrain gives the song a gentle, hopeful tone.
