Misty Edwards - Arms Wide Open (Live) lyrics

"What does love look like?" is
The question I've been pondering
"What does love look like?"
"What does love look like?" is the
Question I've been asking of You

I once believed that love was romance
Just a chance
I even thought that love was for
The lucky and the beautiful
I once believed that love
Was a momentary bliss
But love is more than this
All You ever wanted was my attention
All You ever wanted was love from me
All You ever wanted was my affections
To sit here at Your feet then tell me
"What does love look like?" is
The question I've been pondering
"What does love look like?"
If all of life comes down to love
Then tell me "What does love look like?" is
The question I've been pondering
"What does love look like?"

Then I sat down
A little frustrated and confused
If all of life comes down to love then
Love has to be more than sentiment
More than selfishness and selfish gain

And then I saw Him there, hanging on a tree
Looking at me
I saw Him there, hanging on a tree
Looking at me
He was looking at me, looking at Him
Staring through me
I could not escape those beautiful eyes
And I began to weep and weep

He had arms wide open, a heart exposed
Arms wide open He was bleeding, bleeding
Arms wide open, a heart exposed
Arms wide open He was bleeding, bleeding

Love's definition
Love's definition was looking at me

Looking at Him, hanging on a tree
I began to weep and weep and weep and weep

This is how I know what love is
This is how I know what love is
This is how I know what love is
This is how I know what love is
This is how I know what love is
This is how I know what love is
This is how I know what love is
This is how I know what love is

And as I sat there weeping, crying
Those beautiful eyes, full of desire and love
And He said to me: "You shall love Me
You shall love Me
You shall love Me, You shall love Me
You shall love Me, You shall love Me
You shall love Me, You shall love Me"
With arms wide open, a heart exposed
With arms wide open, bleeding
Sometimes bleeding
With arms wide open, a heart exposed
With arms wide open, bleeding
Sometimes bleeding
He said to me: "You shall love Me
You shall love Me
You shall love Me, You shall love Me
You shall love Me, You shall love Me
You shall love Me, You shall love"

If anybody's looking for love in
All the wrong places
If you've been searching for
Love, come to Me, come to Me
Take up your cross, deny yourself
Forget your father's house and run
Run with Me
'Cause You were made for abandonment
Wholeheartedness
And You were made for someone greater
Someone bigger, so follow Me
And you'll come alive when you learn to die

He said to me: "You shall love Me
You shall love Me
You shall love Me, You shall love Me
You shall love Me, You shall love Me
You shall love Me, You shall love"
With arms wide open, a heart exposed
With arms wide open, bleeding
Sometimes bleeding
With arms wide open, a heart exposed
Arms wide open, bleeding, sometimes bleeding

Yeah, yeah, yeah i'm saying yes to You
I'm saying yes
All across the room, we say, "Yes
Yes, show us the way of love
Teach us the way of love we will go anywhere
We will do anything" i will give everything
For the sake of love i was made for love
I was made, I'm in it for love
