Open Arms (Hallelujah)
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
But I lost my dad to an early grave
Then I took three steps and I lost my way (ooh)
No, I don't wanna believe it, how I couldn't save myself
I took my preconceptions and I left them on the shelf
Because they said that I need Jesus, or I'll end up down in hell
But I just can't believe it 'til I see 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 (ooh)
Now looking back, rose-colored glass
I wanna see a silver lining
Ghosts from my past don't make it easy
But believe me, I'm still trying
No, no, no (ooh)
No, I don't wanna believe it, how I couldn't save myself (ah)
I took my preconceptions and I left them on the shelf (ooh)
Because they said that I need Jesus, or I'll end up down in hell
But I just can't believe it 'til I see 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 we started (ooh)
Yeah
Uh-ooh
Ah, ah
But I lost my friend to an early grave
'Cause he lost his mind and I came too late
I lost my dad to an early grave
Then I took three steps and I lost my way
No, I don't wanna believe it, how I couldn't save myself
I took my preconceptions and I left them on the shelf (left them on the shelf)
Because they said that I need Jesus or I'll end up down in hell (oh, no)
But I just can't believe it 'til I see it for myself (see 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
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
But I lost my dad to an early grave
Then I took three steps and I lost my way (ooh)
No, I don't wanna believe it, how I couldn't save myself
I took my preconceptions and I left them on the shelf
Because they said that I need Jesus, or I'll end up down in hell
But I just can't believe it 'til I see 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 (ooh)
Now looking back, rose-colored glass
I wanna see a silver lining
Ghosts from my past don't make it easy
But believe me, I'm still trying
No, no, no (ooh)
No, I don't wanna believe it, how I couldn't save myself (ah)

I've come so far from open arms
But, Hallelujah
Still, I've grown so far from where we started
