We Are The Reason

As little children we would 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.

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 went by we learned more about gifts
The giving of ourselves and what that means
On a dark and cloudy day, a man hung crying in the rain
All because of love.
All because of love.

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.

I finally found the reason for living
It's in giving every part of my heart to Him
And all that I do every word that I say
I'll be giving my all just for Him,
For Him.

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 the reason to live.

The title of this blog entry is eponymous to the title of this lyrics sung by Avalon, though I heard the band is not the original singer of this song. This is what I think Christmas should be, and I have chosen this time to tell anyone interested to avoid all the Merry-Christmas phrases and sayings, not that I'm against that, but with the intention of reminding the reason why we are having this holiday for the season. And also with the hope that we will also be reminded of this reason for the rest of this new year.

God bless you all.
