As little children we would dream of Christmas morn

And all the gifts and toys

We knew we'd find, but we never realized

A baby boy, one blessed night

Gave us the greatest gift of our life



Chorus:

We are the reason that He gave His life

We are the reason Jesus suffered and died

To a world that was lost

He gave all He could give

To show us the reason to live



As the years went by, we learned more of our gifts

And giving of ourselves and what they mean

On a dark and cloudy day

A man hung dying in the rain

Because of love, because of love

Because of love



Chorus:

We are the reason that He gave His life

We are the reason why the Lord suffered and died

To a world that was lost

He gave all He could give

To show us the reason to live

To live...

To live...



Coda:

Every time I see the cross

I'm reminded that He gave His life

For you and me...



Chorus:

We are the reason that He gave His life

We are the reason Jesus suffered and died

To a world that was lost

He gave all He could give

To show us the reason to live



We are the reason but

He is the reason we live

Thank you, my Jesus

Thank you, Jesus

I thank you, Lord, my Jesus

We thank you, Jesus

For God so saved the world...

(Jesus)

(Thank you)

(You're worthy to be praised...)

(The name above all names)
