Ik geloof niet in een God die ingrijpt, mijn lief, maar ik weet dat jij dat wel doet.
Mocht ik toch in hem geloven, dan zou ik voor hem knielen en vragen
niets ingrijpend te doen met jou;
jou geen haar op het hoofd te krenken,
je gewoon te laten zoals je bent.
En mocht hij je toch willen leiden, laat hem jou dan
leiden, recht in mijn armen...

Mooi hé?
Dit nummer werd geschreven door Nick Cave, en uitgebracht als eerste singel van de tiende studioalbum  "The Boatman's Call"  die hij in 1997, samen met zijn "Bad Seeds" opnam.

Into my arms
by Nick Cave

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

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

Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms

And I believe in Love
And I know that you do too
And 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 will keep returning
Always and evermore

Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
Into my arms, O Lord
