This song is the soundtrack of the homonymous Christian movie.
It was written by Bruce Broughton and is sung by the evangelical writer Joni Eareckson Tada.
Joni sang the once Oscar-nominated song with much effort, wanting to make it sound hymn-like.
I just tried to figure out the most similar chords. Hope you enjoy.
 
* Capo on 1st fret
 
[Chords used]:
 
* A2    - x02200
* A     - 00222x
* A*    - 002220 <--(Play with emphasis on the 1st string)
* Asus4 - xx0230
* Esus4 - 022200
* D     - X00232
 
* Dbm   - 446654
* E     - 022100
* A#    - 113331
 
* Eb - 665xxx   or   xxx343
* F5 - 113311
 
 
 
[Note]: I think that the chords A2 and Esus4 are almost the same.
If you want it easier, you could play just A5 in the place of the another:
(the song sounds still good and accurate);
Though personally, I think that Esus4 has a slight dirfference.
 
[Intro I]:
(In the first part of the intro, you can just play very rapidly and softly the chord A2):
 
"I'm alone, yet not alone. God's the light that will guide me home.
With His love and tenderness, leading through the wilderness,
And wherever I may roam, I'm alone, yet not alone..."
 
(Then you just play the following as if it were the piano):
 
    A     Asus4 A

B|--2--2--2/3---2--2--2--2--|
G|--2--2--2-2---2--2--2--2--|

Verse 1.
 
         A     Esus4   D
"I will not be bent in fear
         Esus4      A    A2  A
He's the re-fuge I know is  near
         A*         A      Esus4
In His stre-ngth I find my own
A       D (Asus4) A  (A*)  Esus4
By His faith-ful  mer-cies shown 
         A       Esus4      D
That so migh-ty  is     His shield
        Esus4  A   A2     A
All His love   is now re-vealed
 
 
[Bridge]:
 
Dbm                    A      Dbm             A
When my steps are lost... and desperate for a guide,
E              D        Asus4     D            Asus4
I can feel His touch, a soothing presence by my side
 
[Chorus]:
 
 A         Esus4  D
Alone, yet not   alone
        Esus4       A  A2 A
Not for-sa-ken when on my own
       A*   A       Esus4
I can lean upon His arm, 
A      D  (Asus4) A  (A*)   Esus4
And be lif-ted    up from   harm
      A          Esus4    D
If I stumble, or if I'm thrown, 
     Esus4  A  A2    A
I'm alone, yet not alone
 
[Bridge]:
 
Dbm                    A      Dbm             A
When my steps are lost... and desperate for a guide,
E              D          Asus4     D              Asus4
I can feel His touch... a soothing presence  by my side
       Bb
By my side! 
 
[Verse 2]:
(For the last part, you can play the following chords...
but you can also move the capo to the 2nd fret or, failling that, play the same chords above).
 
         Bb     F         Eb
He has bound me with His love,
           F          Bb   F5 Bb
Watchful angels look from  a- bove
      Bb            F                A    Esus4   D
Every evil can be braved, 
(Bb)   Eb      Bb       F
For I know  I  will be  saved
       Bb         F     Eb
Never frightened on my own, 
     F     Bb  F5   Bb       Eb      (A2)
I'm alone, yet not alone...  ahhh...
     F     Bb  F5   Bb
I'm alone, yet not alone
 
 
May God bless You!
