Open Your Arms - Goodbye Mr MacKenzie

The girl steps ahead and she’s dressed in white

All because they said she was strange

The village is present the date has been set

For the death of Aliean Oban

She opens up her arms

And now the rain is falling down

The tide has turned and faces burn

With hate on holy ground

Here they come, they come

Bringing it all back again

Here they come, they come

Bringing it all back with the wind

Will you open your arms

The man on the altar raises his hands

All because they said she was strange

But the good mask is twisted inside out

And normally deranged

The well of lies, the sea of faces

Becomes a waterfall

Theres trouble coming round the bend

And over every wall

Here they come, they come

Bringing it all back again

Here they come, they come

Bringing us Jesus again

Will you open your arms

Isn’t it strange

How you open your arms to the rain

Here they come to push her down again

Here they come, they’re bringing Jesus again

Will you open your arms
