THE REASON
"For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living." Romans 14:9 THEY BEAT HIM AND THREW HIM INTO THE STREET / A CROWN OF THORNS UPON HIS HEAD / THEY MOCKED HIM AND SPAT UPON HIS SACRED FACE / THEY KNEW THAT SOON HE WOULD BE DEAD / FATHER FORGIVE THEM, THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO / HE GAVE HIS LIFE BECAUSE OF ME AND YOU < CHORUS: I AM THE REASON FOR HIS PAIN / HE IS THE REASON FOR MY GAIN / I AM THE CAUSE OF HIS DISTRESS / AND WITHOUT HIM THERE’S EMPTINESS / I MADE HIM SUFFER ON THE CROSS / HE GAVE ME FREEDOM AT NO COST / I COULDN’T SAVE HIM FROM THE TREE / BUT HE SAVED ME ETERNALLY > THEY DROVE SPIKES INTO HIS HANDS AND FEET AND PLACED A SIGN ABOVE HIS HEAD / THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF JEWS / AND IN A PRAYER HE SOFTLY SAID / FATHER FORGIVE THEM THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO / HE GAVE HIS LIFE BECAUSE OF ME AND YOU < CHORUS > < BRIDGE: GOD COMMANDED AND THE STONE WAS ROLLED AWAY / THEN MY SAVIOR ROSE ON THE THIRD DAY
