Austin Cunningham - With His Arms Wide Open lyrics

There came a kind and gentle man from a town called Galilee Spent his whole life reachin 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 Now when he talked about His kingdom, well he threw the kings a curve Cause with all His Fathers 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 follow Him With His arms wide open He welcomed one and all With His arms wide open He tore down all those walls From sinners filled with shame To the blind and the lame With His arms wide open He loved em all the same When His days on earth were through He'd given all that He could give So it's no surprise that He died the same way that He lived With his arms wide open He hung there from 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
