HEAVEN'S GATES
WERE CLOSED
AND THERE SEEMED
TO BE NO HOPE
FOR FALLEN MAN
WE WERE PRISONERS
OF OUR SIN
WITH NO WAY
TO ENTER IN
BUT GOD HAD A PLAN
THE FATHER KNEW
THERE HAD TO BE
A PERFECT SACRIFICE
SO JESUS CAME
A CROSS WAS RAISED
AND WHEN HE
LAID DOWN HIS LIFE
YEAH
WIDE OPEN
WIDE OPEN
THEY NAILED HIS ARMS
WIDE OPEN
AFTER THREE DAYS
IN A COLD GRAVE
THE POWER OF SIN
WAS BROKEN
NOW WITH
OUTSTRETCHED ARMS
HE WELCOMES IN
EVERYONE
WHO TRUSTS IN HIM
HIS NAIL-SCARRED HANDS
HOLD HEAVEN'S GATES
WIDE OPEN
YEAH YEAH YEAH
YEA EE YEAH YEAH MM
FOR SO LONG
MY EYES WERE CLOSED
I COULDN'T SEE
A WAY OF HOPE
FOR SOMEONE LIKE ME
AND IN MY DESPAIR
I CRIED
THERE'S GOT TO BE
MORE TO THIS LIFE
LORD HELP ME PLEASE
AND THE FATHER SAID
THERE HAD TO BE
A PERFECT SACRIFICE
THAT'S WHY
JESUS CAME
A CROSS WAS RAISED
AND HE LAID DOWN
HIS LIFE
WIDE OPEN
WIDE OPEN
THEY NAILED HIS ARMS
WIDE OPEN
AFTER THREE DAYS
IN A COLD GRAVE
THE POWER OF SIN
WAS BROKEN
NOW WITH
OUTSTRETCHED ARMS
HE WELCOMES IN
EVERYONE
WHO TRUSTS IN HIM
HIS NAIL-SCARRED HANDS
HOLD HEAVEN'S GATES
WIDE OPEN
FOR EVERY WEARY
HEART THAT ACHES
FOR EVERY DREAM
THIS WORLD WILL BREAK
THERE'S A PROMISE
IN ITS PLACE
GOD HAS MADE A WAY
YEAH
NOW WITH
OUTSTRETCHED ARMS
HE WELCOMES IN
EVERYONE
WHO TRUSTS IN HIM
HIS NAIL-SCARRED HANDS
HOLD HEAVEN'S GATES
WIDE OPEN
THEY NAILED HIS ARMS
WIDE OPEN
AFTER THREE DAYS
IN A COLD GRAVE
THE POWER OF SIN
WAS BROKEN
NOW WITH
OUTSTRETCHED ARMS
HE WELCOMES IN
EVERYONE
WHO TRUSTS IN HIM
HIS NAIL-SCARRED HANDS
