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


F       G          Am        F          C
Yeah, I believe in God, and God ain't me

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

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



F       G          Am      F          C
And I believe in God, but God ain't us


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

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

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


F       G         Am       F          C
But I believe in God, and God is God
