Wide Open

D Bm G A   2x

[Verse 1]
 G                   Bm
Heaven's gates were closed
            G              Bm
And there seemed to be no hope

For fallen man
           D             Bm
We were prisoners of our sin
        A            D
With no way to enter in
               Bm
But God had a plan
      D
The Father knew there had to be
    A
A perfect sacrifice
     G
So Jesus came, a cross was raised
         Bm                A
And when He laid down His life

[Chorus]
      D          Bm
Wide open, wide open
       G                   A
They nailed His arms wide open
       D               Bm
After three days in a cold grave
      G                A
The power of sin was broken
              Bm
Now with outstretched arms
      A
He welcomes in
  G            D
Everyone who trusts in Him
     Bm                       A                  D
His nail-scarred hands hold heaven's gates wide open

[Verse 2]
 G                         Bm
For so long my eyes were closed
            G            Bm
I couldn't see a way of hope

For someone like me
 D                    Bm
And in my despair I cried
               A                D
There's got to be more to this life
               Bm
Lord help me please
          D
And the Father said
                    A
There had to be a perfect sacrifice
             G
That's why Jesus came, a cross was raised
    Bm                A
And He laid down His life

[Chorus]
      D          Bm
Wide open, wide open
       G                   A
They nailed His arms wide open
       D               Bm
After three days in a cold grave
      G                A
The power of sin was broken
              Bm
Now with outstretched arms
      A
He welcomes in
  G            D
Everyone who trusts in Him
     Bm                       A                  D
His nail-scarred hands hold heaven's gates wide open

[Bridge]
      Em
For every weary heart that aches
      Bm
For every dream this world will break
  Em
There's a promise in its place
                A
God has made a way

[Chorus]
      D          Bm
Wide open, wide open
       G                   A
They nailed His arms wide open
       D               Bm
After three days in a cold grave
      G                A
The power of sin was broken
              Bm
Now with outstretched arms
      A
He welcomes in
  G            D
Everyone who trusts in Him
     Bm                       A                  D
His nail-scarred hands hold heaven's gates wide open
