Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Touching places still dark
Deep inside of us
King of glory come in
Messing us up you are
Setting us up for
Eternal love oh
Open wide
Open wide and we will usher you in
Open wide
Open wide oh king of glory come in
V 2:
We're not holding on anymore
To the keys to the doors
We give them to you
King of glory come in
Oil the hinges on the gates
Turn the lock, roll the stones away
We call to you, oh
King of glory come in
Tell me who is this king (2x's)
Strong and mighty king
Power and glory king
King of all kings

The call for the King of Glory to come in implies that only God can fully cleanse and heal these areas. The second verse states that we are no longer holding onto our own keys but are giving them to God, letting go of our own desires to allow His will to come to fruition. The lyrics continue to emphasize the need for submission to the King of Glory, asking for Him to come in and work in our lives in a powerful way.
In conclusion, Suzy Yaraei's "Open Wide" is a powerful and moving song about surrendering to God's will and allowing Him to work in our lives. It speaks to a deep need within all of us to be touched and cleansed, to let go of our own desires and let God's will prevail. Only then can we fully experience His power and glory in our lives.
