[Intro]C G C G[Verse]D-G-C GI Don't believe in an interventionist GodD-G-C GBut I know, darling, that you doD-G-C GBut if I did, I would kneel down and ask HimD-G-C GNot to intervene when it came to youCOh, not to touch a hair on your headAmLeave you as you areDIf he felt he had to direct youBm DThen direct you into my arms[Chorus]AmInto my arms, O LordGInto my arms, O LordAmInto my arms, O LordGInto my arms[Verse]D-G-C GAnd I don't believe in the existence of angelsD-G-C GBut looking at you I wonder if that's trueD-G-C GBut if I did I would summon them togetherD-G-C GAnd ask them to watch over youCTo each burn a candle for youAmTo make bright and clear your pathDAnd to walk, like Christ, in grace and loveBm DAnd guide you into my arms[Chorus]AmInto my arms, O LordGInto my arms, O LordAmInto my arms, O LordGInto my arms[Verse]D-G-C GBut I believe in LoveD-G-C GAnd I know that you do tooD-G-C GAnd I believe in some kind of pathD-G-C GThat we can walk down, me and youCSo keep your candles burningAmAnd make her journey bright and pureDThat she will keep returningBm DAlways and evermore[Chorus]AmInto my arms, O LordGInto my arms, O LordAmInto my arms, O LordGInto my arms
