I don't believe in an interventionist God ♪ But I know, darling, that you do ♪ But if I did, I would kneel down and ask Him ♪ Not to intervene when it came to you Not to touch a hair on your head To leave you as you are And if He felt He had to direct you Then direct you into my arms
Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms ♪ I don't believe in the existence of angels
But looking at you I wonder if that's true
But if I did, I, I would summon them together ♪ And I'd ask them to watch over you To each burn a candle for you To make bright and see your path And to walk, like Christ, in grace and love And guide you back, back into my arms Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord ♪ But I believe in love ♪ And I know that you do too ♪ I believe, I believe in some kind of path ♪ That we can walk down, me and you So keep your candles burning And make her journey bright and pure That she'll keep returning Always and evermore Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord Into my arms, O Lord
