“Arms of Jesus” is track #6 on Julie’s album, Good Wine & Bad Decisions.
My interpretation of this song is that the Biblically misguided woman in the song has died, and is asking those she left behind not to cry for her, but to pray that she went to Heaven instead.
[Verse 1]
When you bow your head, say a prayer for me
That I may walk on streets of gold
But don't cry, don't cry for me
I've gone to find what I need to know
[Chorus]
If the arms, arms of Jesus
Are wide open, wide open for me
I will run into the arms of Jesus
If they're open, wide open for me
[Verse 2]
I've lived hard, I've lost my way
And drifted far, I've gone astray
But don't cry, don't cry for me
Just pray I'll find my Savior's grace
[Chorus]
If the arms, arms of Jesus
Are wide open, wide open for me
I will run into the arms of Jesus
If they're open, wide open for me
If they're open, wide open for me
Arms of Jesus was written by Julie Roberts & Richard Jason Collum.
