Open Wide

This is the band Future of Forestry (the name comes from a C.S. Lewis poem .. how cool is that).

“Open Wide”

You have walked so deep a canyon
Deep a canyon now
In the end you know that you’ve been found
You’re found
Heaven sure fell hard upon you
Hard upon you now
In the end you know that you’ve been found
You’re found

Oh, you belong now
Oh, you are free

So open wide the arms you’re given
You’re too alive to just stand still
Open wide your heart as you breathe in
You’re too alive to just stay here

You wondered how your searching heart
Your searching heart would roam
Coming to the place that you’d call home
You’re home

You’re shaken up
Awaken
You gotta live, you gotta love

    To be honest, I didn’t like the video that much when I saw it..

    Wow. Opinionated Zach! Haha.
    I heard a small clip of this song randomly and really really liked the lyrics .. so I googled the lyrics. I love the line “You’re too alive to just stand still”. AMEN.

    I’m going to have to side with you, Mr. Webster on the video issue though. Very creative and I love the ending. .. and I am going to try and check out that article you were talking about.
