I Believe
I believe for every drop of rain that falls, a flower grows
And 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
Yes I believe, oh 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
Interesting side note: Back in the times, in the US, when devotionals were played over school-wide PA networks to morning homeroom classes in public elementary/pre-secondary schools, this song was among the recorded standards that were heard. Other recording that were heard included The Ave Maria and the Our Father . . . Como recordings. That was in a Texas district's public schools but the practice - this was before Madelyn Murray vs Baltimore School... Supreme Court decision outlawing the practice - was widespread.

The bachelors
Definitely sung by Frankie Laine in the 1953's. I remember it on 78 rpm like yesterday! 'new2brian'
The Earls?
It was also recorded by Elvis.
The person who sang this song was Tom Jones
Richard Tucker of the Metropolitan Opera Company on Columbia Label. A beautiful rendition. A Mobile,Al radio station used to sign-off with this song in 1955-56.
The letterman
1961 Larry Chance & The Earls (doowop) starts off,somewhere above there is a heaven. Absolutely the best rendition
The song : I Believe is by Dolly Parton
Don't know if this is the song you mean, but if you google The Bachelors... I Believe , you should get the lyrics from there .
I know the song its a sixties song. My parents had the record . Can't remember who sang it.
Frank sinatra
