Open Arms (Hallelujah) Lyrics by gavn!
[Verse 1]
Taught me to go, long way from home some place where I'm not comfortable
Out on the water, I close my eyes and cast a line to the unknown
But I've broken more than just a window
No foundation on my floor
I'm shook to my core, I felt a feeling
Wondering if there's something more
[Pre-Chorus]
But I lost my dad to an early grave
Then I took three steps and I lost my way
[Chorus]
No, I don't wanna believe it, how I couldn't save myself
I took my preconceptions and I left them on the shelf
'Cause they said that I need Jesus or I'll end up down in hell
But I just can't believe it 'til I seen it for myself
And I'll say, "Hallelujah"
I've come so far from open arms
Hallelujah
Still, I've grown so far from where I started
[Verse 2]
Now looking back
Rose-colored glass, I wanna see the silver lining
Ghosts from my past
Don't make it easy, but believe me, I'm still trying (Oh, no, no)
[Chorus]
No, I don't wanna believe it, how I couldn't save myself
I took my preconceptions and I left them on the shelf
'Cause they said that I need Jesus or I'll end up down in hell
But I just can't believe it 'til I seen it for myself
And I'll say, "Hallelujah"
I've come so far from open arms
But Hallelujah
Still, I've grown so far from where we started
[Bridge]
Ooh-ah, hey
Ooh-ooh
Oh, hey
[Pre-Chorus]
But I lost my friend to an early grave
'Cause he lost his mind and I came too late
But I lost my dad to an early grave
Then I took three steps and I lost my way
[Chorus]
No, I don't wanna believe it, how I couldn't save myself
I took my preconceptions and I left them on the shelf
'Cause they said that I need Jesus or I'll end up down in hell
But I just can't believe it 'til I seen it for myself (For myself)
And I'll say, "Hallelujah"
I've come so far from open arms
But Hallelujah
Still, I've grown so far from where we started
