Lyrics:

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, yeah
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
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
They nailed His arms wide open
After three days in a cold grave
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
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
Wide open
Wide open, wide open
Now with outstretched arms
He welcomes in
Everyone who trusts in Him
His nail-scarred hands
Hold heaven's gates wide open

Wide open, wide open
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
They nailed His arms wide open
After three days in a cold grave
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
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
Wide open, wide open
Nailed His arms wide open
Open, yeah, oh...
Yeah, yeah, yeah...
