About This Song:
A portion of the proceeds from If You Believe will benefit the Journey Institute.
In 2009, single mother Dafna Michaelson traveled across America to all 50 states and Washington DC finding America's problem solvers and idea-generators. Through this Journey Michaelson has been sharing the stories of ordinary people doing extraordinary things for their communities throughout the country with the goal of inspiring others to action. Michaelson has now launched the Journey Institute to take what she has learned this year and begin assisting people nationwide in taking their ideas off of the couch and putting them into action in their communities through connections and support from the Journey team. The Journey Institute will bring together like-minded problem solvers with a similar goal for their communities, along with experts garnered from the network of inspirational people gleaned from the 50in52 Journey to a quarterly summit in Colorado. Each summit will help these individuals put together a business plan, marketing strategy, launch fundraisers in their community and ultimately give them the tools and knowledge necessary to put their ideas into action.

Lyrics
If You Believe
If you believe that love is in your heart
If you believe that hope is just the start
If you believe that goodness lives inside
If you believe in the power of persistence
And if you believe there’s no room for indifference
Then you’re not along just for the ride
Cause if you believe that anything is possible
Then anything is possible that you believe
If you believe that anything is possible
Then come on and roll up your sleeves
If you believe that freedom is a right of birth
If you believe in helping Mother Earth
If you believe in getting something done
If you believe that black or white we all agree
We’re all part of the same humanity
Then it’s time for us to work as one
If you believe love is stronger than fear
If you’re doing something positive here
If you know that change starts just with you
If you believe in respecting one another
Then take my hand my sisters, my brothers
We’ve got our work cut out for us to do
Cause if we believe that anything is possible
Then anything is possible that we believe
If we believe that anything is possible
Then it’s time for us to roll up our sleeves
C’mon everybody let’s roll up our sleeves
