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
