Melodie Crittenden - With His Arms Wide Open lyrics
rate me(Music & lyrics Austin Cunningham)
There came a kind and gentle man from a town called Galilee.
Spent his whole life reaching out to folks like you and me.
He said his father sent him bearing gifts from up above
to those believing in him He offered faith, hope and love.
With his arms wide open
He walked from town to town.
With his arms wide open
that each lost sheep might be found,
from the youngest to the old
to the weak and wayward souls.
With his arms wide open
He came gathering his fold.
When He talked about his kingdom, it threw the kings a curve.
'Cause with all his Father's power, He said He came to serve.
The weary and the destitute were the ones that He called friends.
No wonder He had prostitutes and even lepers fall him.
Cause with his arms wide open
He welcomed one and all
with his arms wide open
He tore down every wall.
From sinners filler with shame,
to the blind and the lame.
With his arms wide open
Oh, He loved 'em all the same.
When his days on earth were through He'd given all that He could give.
And it's no surprise that He died the same way that He lived.
With his arms wide open
He hung there on a cross.
With his arms wide open
that not one soul would be lost.
He turned the other cheek
when they nailed him to a tree.
With his arms wide open
He rescued you and me.
With his arms wide open
He set this whole world free.
With his arms wide open
He bought our eternity.
