A beautiful, sacred hymn with music by Kevin G. Pace and text by Mary Ann W. Snowball. YouTube video: With Open Arms, hymn
See text below:

While on my knees in prayer I beg, “Where art Thou, God? O where?
I cannot see thy hidden face; I cannot feel thy care.”
With open arms He welcomes me inside his piercing eyes,
That I might see his truths revealed, and stay right by his side.

While wan’dring in my thoughts I roam through concepts to explore.
But He asks only faith of me, true faith and nothing more.
With open arms He bids me come inside his perfect mind,
That I might gain intelligence, pure light and truth combined.

While feeling all alone I plead, each day, to sense God’s love.
I know his righteous Son was sent from royal courts above.
With open arms He beckons me inside his gracious heart,
That I might join his family, (no word here) never to depart.

‘Mid everlasting grace I pause, then glancing up above,
I see his face and hear his voice, and know his life of love.
With open arms He comes close by for me to feel his scars.
And then I hear these tender words: “Come to my open arms.”
