Bb [ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ] Gm7 O Eli, there's a sanctity in your innocence F Gm7 A certain beauty and no uncertain strength F That brings me to the faith Bb Gm7 I don't know if I, if I am climbing to or falling in F Gm7 But it comes like grace from your tiny hands F When I hold you in mine Chorus: Bb And I pray that the eyes of your heart Fm7/Bb Eb Shine bright with the hope to which you're called Cm And may you know with all the saints Cm/Bb F The height, the depth and the width and the length of the love of God O Eli There's a joy in your sweet abandon Like the cowgirl ballerina leaves that ride The wild and holy bucking wind that the sky Sent through you to blow away these walls I've built Walls of selfishness and walls of guilt and leave me free to be a child CHORUS Bb Gm7 O Eli F Gm7 Like the cowgirl ballerina leaves that ride F Bb Eb F Bb The wild and holy bucking wind to the sky
