We Are the Reason
[Spoken Intro]
-Ladies and gentlemen, it's my brother, Bill Moss Jr
-Celebrate Jesus
How many of you know that he is the reason that we sing
That we celebrate

[Verse]
As little children, we'd dream of Christmas morn
Of 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]
We were the reason he gave his life
We were 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, oh

[Verse]
As the years went by we learned more about gifts
The giving of ourselves and what that means
On a dark and cloudy day a man hung dying in the rain
Because of love, because of love

[Chorus]
(And we are)
We are the reason he gave his life (we are the reason)
We are the reason that he suffered and died (to a world that was lost, that was lost, that was so lost)
To a world that was lost, he gave all he could give (to show us the reason)
To show us the reason to live
[Bridge]
(I finally)
I finally found the reason for living (it's in giving myself)
It's in giving every part of my heart to him (and all that I do)
And all that I do, every word that I say
I'll be giving my all just for him (yeah and we are)

[Chorus/Outro]
We are the reason (oh give him glory)
That he gave his life (we are the reason)
We are the reason that he suffered and died (to a world that was lost, that was lost, that was so lost)
To a world that was lost, he gave all he could give (to show us the reason)
To show us the reason to live (yeah, oh, yeah and we are)
We are the reason (oh I've just come to let you know)
That he gave his life (we are the reason, oh somebody needs to know there was a purpose that he gave his son)
We are the reason that he suffered and died (to a world that was lost, that was lost, that was so lost)
To a world that was lost he gave all he could give (uh, to show us the reason)
To show us the reason to live (to show you, to show me, there is a reason, he is my reason)
He is my reason (uh, glory to God)
To live (my reason to live)
My reason to live (my reason to live, he is my reason, yes he is)
He is my reason (he is my reason to live, hey yeah)
My reason to live
