Words and Music by: David Meece

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 born one blessed night
gave us the greatest gift of our lives.

CHORUS 1:
We are the reason that He gave His life,
we are the reason that He 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 go by we learned more about gifts,
and giving of ourselves and what that means.
On a dark and cloudy day a man hung crying in the rain
because of love, because of love.

(Repeat Chorus 1)

REFRAIN:
I've finally found a reason for living,
it's in giving every part of my heart to Him,
In all that I do, every word that I say,
I'll be giving my all just for Him, for Him.

CHORUS 2:
And we are the reason that He gave His life,
we are the reason that He suffered and died,
to a world that was lost, He gave all He could give,
to show us the reason to live.
He is my reason to live.
