You should take something with good conversation skills (diplomacy as class skill, its the most importand skill unless you want to be evil, then you might think of bluff) and high charisma.
I have made this

But it can fight good enough. Make a human and take diplomacy instead of spot.
It is the best "holy knight" I can think of without being a power gamer.
The first thing I thought of was a bard.
After some search I found this

Warning: Both favoured soul and bard are spontanous casters. They learn spells only at level up. Take care what spells you choose.
It is possible to play a single class but if you add other classes it gets better usually.
