      [Intro]
C G C G

[Verse 1]
D-G-C                                       G
     I Don't believe in an interventionist God
D-G-C                             G
    But I know, darling, that you do
D-G-C                                     G
     But if I did, I would kneel down and ask Him
D-G-C                                G
     Not to intervene when it came to you
                                  C
Oh, not to touch a hair on your head
                 Am
Leave you as you are
                        D
If he felt he had to direct you
        Bm               D
Then direct you into my arms

[Chorus]
         Am
Into my arms, O Lord
         G
Into my arms, O Lord
         Am
Into my arms, O Lord
         G
Into my arms

[Verse 2]
D-G-C                                         G
     And I don't believe in the existence of angels
D-G-C                                       G
     But looking at you I wonder if that's true
D-G-C                                   G
     But if I did I would summon them together
D-G-C                            G
     And ask them to watch over you
                       C
To each burn a candle for you
                               Am
To make bright and clear your path
        D
And to walk, like Christ, in grace and love
     Bm                D
And guide you into my arms

[Chorus]
         Am
Into my arms, O Lord
         G
Into my arms, O Lord
         Am
Into my arms, O Lord
         G
Into my arms

[Verse 3]
D-G-C                   G
     But I believe in Love
D-G-C                       G
     And I know that you do too
D-G-C                               G
     And I believe in some kind of path
D-G-C                              G
     That we can walk down, me and you
                        C
So keep your candles burning
                                Am
And make her journey bright and pure
                      D
That she will keep returning
   Bm           D
Always and evermore

[Chorus]
         Am
Into my arms, O Lord
         G
Into my arms, O Lord
         Am
Into my arms, O Lord
         G
Into my arms
