G
I believe in prophecy
G                                  C               G
Some folks see things not everybody can see
G                        D                      G
And, once in a while, they pass the secret along to you and me
G
And I believe in miracles
G                C                            G
Something sacred burning in every bush and tree
G                   D                             G
We can all learn to sing the songs the angels sing


C       D          Em        C          G
Yeah, I believe in God, and God ain't me

                                               
G
I've traveled around the world, 
G                          C                             G
Stood on mighty mountains and gazed across the wilderness
G                       D                           G
Never seen a line in the sand or a diamond in the dust

G
And as our fate unfurls,
G                     C                             G
Every day that passes I'm sure about a little bit less
G             D                                     G
Even my money keeps telling me it's God I need to trust



C       D          Em      C          G
And I believe in God, but God ain't us


G                          C                              G
God, in my little understanding, don't care what name I call
G                C                G
Whether or not I believe doesn't matter at all

G
I receive the blessings
G                               C               G
That every day on Earth's another chance to get it right
G                          C                          G
Let this little light of mine shine and rage against the night

G
Just another lesson
G                  C                      G
Maybe someone's watching and wondering what I got
G                D                  G
Maybe this is why I'm here on Earth, and maybe not


C       D         Em       C          G
But I believe in God, and God is God
