David Phelps - Visions Of God

Intro: Am G/B 4x

Am            G/B
She gently falls asleep
Am            G/B
Her head is laid upon my lap.
Bm            C            G/B
The highway sings a soothing lullaby.
Am            G/B
My daughter here beside me
Am            G/B
My little boy is in the backseat
Bm            C            G/B
Outlined by the headlights from behind.
Am            G/B                  C
I ask the Lord to freeze us here in time
Am            G/B                  C
As my son reaches out his hand to mine.

Chorus:
      Bm            C
Silhouettes sent from Heaven
      G                  D
Paint a portrait of eternal things.
            Bm            C
A fleeting glimpse like a vapor
      G                  D
Brings remembrance of what is holy.
Am                  D                  Em
Clean and pure, unblemished and unflawed
Am                  D
Oh, come to me sweet visions of God.


Am G/B 2x

  Am                  G/B
I hear her whisper sweetly
 Am                  G/B
"I made this for you, Daddy."
Bm            C            G/B
Her crayon masterpiece says, "I love you".
Am            G/B
At last a bedtime story
Am                  G/B
They rush to get beneath the sheets
Bm                  C            G
For Peter Pan, Pinocchio, and Pooh.
Am                  G/B            C
They cling to every word until the end
      Am                  G/B            C
Then they close their eyes and drift to Neverland.

Chorus 


      Em            D
So often I have missed Him
      C            G
Like a shadow in the night
      Bm      Em      C
A familiar face I fail to recognize
      Em            D
But He is there in pigtails,
      C            G
Peek-a-boo and piggyback rides
Bm              E            C
A kiss, a gentle touch, a baby's cry.


Chorus
