Eli's Song
Rich Mullins

  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
