Key: C

WE ARE THE REASON

          C                 Dm/B     E         Am
As little children we would dream of Christmas morn
    Gm7     C         F        C/E       Dm7
And all the gifts and toys we knew we'd find
       E        Am           Am/G             Am/F#
But we never realized a baby born one blessed night
            Fmaj7         Dm7      G7       C/D   D
Gave us the greatest gift   of our lives  

Chorus 1:
G                       Am
We were the reason that He gave His life
Dsus        D              G                G  D/F#
We were the reason that He suffered and died
     Em                          Am7
To a world that was lost He gave all He could give
   D7                    G
To show us the reason to live

G    Am/G     C    Dm/C
   
Verse 2:
As the years went by we learned more about gifts 
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

(Chorus 1)
 
     Eb                         Bb/D
I've finally found a reason for li-ving,
        Bbm/Db                    Ab/C
it's in gi-ving every part of my heart to Him
   Abm/Cb               Eb/Bb       Cm7
In all that I do, every word that I say
        F                       Bb       E
I'll be gi-ving my all just for Him, for Him

Chorus 2:
    A                      Bm
And we are the reason that He gave His life
Esus       E              A
We are the reason that He suffered and died
E/G#  F#m                          Bm7
To a   world that was lost He gave all He could give
   E7                    F#m  B
To show us the reason to live
D        E         A
He is my reason to live
