Christ centered songs written by Dan Simmons...the best Gospel and inspirational A.I. music on the internet!
"firesong" is the songwriting ministry of Dan Simmons Thanks for stopping by. It's my desire to faithfully share that which has been given to me. This website will be a sampling of recordings that I, along with family and friends, have done over past 45 years. There are over 600 original unpublished songs presented in demo form on this site. Special thanks go to my partners in music, my daughter Amber, son Ian and the guys of Single Heart (Gene, Bob, Chris, Marty and Tata) who joined me to sing praises to the Lord down through the years. I also wish to thank those co-writers and artists that have joined with me in developing new music the passed few years to share on this website. I'm now featuring AI (Artificial Intelligence) groups that I've developed to sing some of the songs. I hope it's evident to everyone... that though the melodies and harmonies, styles and singers may change... JESUS has always been and will always be...the Song! ...this music is one simple expression of a very thankful heart. (Dan is a retired firefighter and ordained minister)

Lyrics
[Verse 1] When you're divided down the middle In your heart and your mind And life becomes a riddle With an answer you can't find Turn back to the one You knew so close long ago And get back on the right road once again [Verse 2] Cause every day is a struggle To get up and show your face The peace that you once had Has flown away to a distant place You've stumbled so many times How could he forgive again But one thing that you need to learn my friend [Chorus] His arms are always open There's a smile always on his face For the one who comes back running Right into his amazing grace [Instrumental] [Chorus] His arms are always open There's a smile always on his face For the one who comes back running Right into his amazing grace [Verse 3] Look back and remember Of how it used to be When his presence kissed your days Like the cool ocean breeze But things weren't going fine You dropped your guard and went astray And sometimes even sin can seem okay [Verse 4] There's a lesson to be learned From the choices we make You know that you'll get burned If they cause you to forsake The one who loved you so much that he gave his life for you So jump back in the race Cause he's there to see you through [Chorus] His arms are always open There's a smile always on his face For the one who comes back running Right into his amazing grace His arms are always open There's a smile always on his face For the one who comes back running Right into his amazing grace Cover image for His Arms Are Always Open His Arms Are Always Open
