Rebecca Salonen - The Gates Are Open(Chords)

	        
verse 1 
       C                  F     G7      G 
In the twilight, lost and weary once we walked, 
      A                C     G 
Where promised flowers never bloomed; 
      C                    F            G7    C 
Where hearts, found empty, closed their heavy doors; 
    Am           Dm       C      G C 
But ever was the nameless search resumed. 


                   F              C 
For wide before us open stand the gates. 
    G              D         C    G    C 
Now he has come to wield the priceless key. 
 C                  F           G7       C 
Around his feet all earth bears fruit of joy 
    C      G    Am  D        G       C 
And in his love the day sets all men free! 



verse 2 
       C                F       G7       G 
On the shores of day we leave behind the night, 
    A                 C              G  
Abandoned leave there long forgotten dreams; 
   C               F       G7     C 
No more we thirst upon the desert plain, 
    Am                 Dm     C  G   C 
Nor seek to drink dark waters of the stream. 

 
                   F              C 
For wide before us open stand the gates. 
    G              D         C    G    C 
Now he has come to wield the priceless key. 
 C                  F           G7       C 
Around his feet all earth bears fruit of joy 
    C      G    Am  D        G       C 
And in his love the day sets all men free!
