[Verse] When life's road gets rough and torn We stumble on the heartache's thorn But there's a gift so pure and clear A promise shining ever near [Verse 2] The wages that we earn in sin A toll that pulls us deep within But grace arrives just like the dawn For every soul redemption’s song [Chorus] Oh heaven waits with open gates A love so strong it penetrates With Christ the Lord who paid the price We step into eternal life [Verse 3] The chains of past they fall away In light of love we find our way With every step in faith we take His hands are there to mend and make [Bridge] No darkness can consume the light His love will guide us through the night In every heart His truth installs Upon His name our spirit calls [Chorus] Oh heaven waits with open gates A love so strong it penetrates With Christ the Lord who paid the price We step into eternal life
