I know it seems like There's nothing sacred anymore And the world is dark, lit up with only flames of war And it's such an empty place When longing for human praise They walk away, I'm left wide open And my heart bleeds and breaks wide open I hear there's a sacred place Just within Heaven's gates If only Heaven's gates were open If only Heaven's gates were open I know it seems like There's nothing sacred anymore Just my salty tears and broken heart was all I wore A fairytale end for me Was all I was hoping for But these hateful scenes play out like songs about divorce I hear there's a sacred place Just within Heaven's gates If only Heaven's gates were open If only Heaven's gates were open But all I have's a broken heart And all I do is fall apart If only Heaven's gates were open If only Heaven's gates were open I remember my name Was the blessing You gave And You saw the sad ways That I answered my pain But the truth in my soul That You've hidden away Is the grace of a love Far exceeding my shame There is a sacred place Just within Heaven's gates And love has pushed the gates wide open And love has pushed the gates wide open So here I come with all my heart Waiting for my life to start I'm running with my arms wide open Running with my arms wide open Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh Love has pushed the gates wide open
