Lyrics:

Verse (1)
Well, I just heard the news today
It seems my life is gonna change
I closed my eyes, begin to pray,
Then tears of joy stream down my face.
With arms wide open, under the sunlight
Welcome to this place, I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
with arms wide open

Verse (2)
Well, I don't know if I'm ready 
To be the man I have to be.
I'll take a breath, I'll take her by my side
We stand in awe, we've created life
With arms wide open, under the sunlight
Welcome to this place, I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
now everything has changed
I'll show you love I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I'll show you everything. Oh yeah
With arms wide open
Wide open
If I had just one wish
only one demand I hope he's not like me
I hope he understands that he can take this life
And hold it by the hand, and he can greet the world
with arms wide open
With arms wide open
Now everything has changed
I'll show you love, I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
I'll show you everything
With arms wide open
