D2 GMaj7 DMaj7 Em7 A7sus

[Dmaj7] Where is there one can [GMaj7] run to

[DMaj7] Where is there one can [GMaj7] turn

[DMaj7] For the answers to [GMaj7] this life's many con - [D] cerns.

[GMaj7] When everything that you [DMaj7] planned keeps changing

[GMaj7] When life seems out of con- [DMaj7] trol

[GMaj7] When it all becomes so [DMaj7] overwhelming

[Em] He is waiting there with [A] arms wide open


[DMaj7] How often has He [GMaj7] called you

[DMaj7] Summoned you to His [GMaj7] side

[DMaj7] Called your name but there [GMaj7] has been no re- [D] ply

[GMaj7] There is no one who's [DMaj7] ever loved you

[GMaj7] To the depth that He [DMaj7] does

[GMaj7] There is no one who [DMaj7] has what He has

[Em] Waiting there for you with [A] arms wide open


[DMaj7] Welcoming all those who [GMaj7] search to find the way

[DMaj7] Reaching out to those who [GMaj7] call out in His [DMaj7] name

[Em] Never turning one a - [A] way




[DMaj7] Questions flow without [GMaj7] answers

[DMaj7] When you look to the [GMaj7] cross

[DMaj7] The human side of us [GMaj7] struggles to under- [D] stand

[GMaj7] There He shed His blood [DMaj7] freely for us

[GMaj7] So we could be set [DMaj7] free

[GMaj7] And prepared a way [DMaj7] for the sinner

[Em] Now He's waiting there with [A] arms wide open

to - [D] day. [D] [GMaj7] [D] [D]
