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)
