We were the reason
We Are The ReasonWords by David Meece and Dwight Liles, 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
[C]And we were the reason that 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
As the years went 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
[B]I finally found the 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

Christmas is drawing real near and I could tell when people around me started to sing Christmas songs. Most of the time is about the red-nosed dear, the big red guy and what 12 days of Christmas... Sing "We are the Reason" this Christmas, it will add on more meaning :)
These few days have been staying in Church for the coming Christmas event.. First few times when we go through the songs weeks ago, I thought the songs were "normal". But as we sing over and over again each week, I was gradually touched by them. Why did I take such a long time to be touched by the lyrics and tunes? Well, maybe we sang them too many times before and didn't really think about what the lyrics meant. I was especially touched by "We were the Reason" and "Quan Xin De Ni"..

Come on fellow Church mates, we are gonna bring the real Christmas meaning to the world! Add more oil, we will make it through.
