To me I think this song is simply about that "special someone" who is perfect as he or she is and not wanting them to ever encounter harm. Hence the lyrics
"I would kneel down and ask him
Not to intervene when it came to you
Oh, not to touch a hair on your head
Leave you as you are"
"But if I did I would summon them together
Ask them to watch over you
Oh, to each burn a candle for you
To make bright and clear your path"
