We Are the Reason has been sung by various artists, but this post is what the Avalon did. Though this song is not so popular as a Christmas song, yet this song can also be classified as a good Christmas song.

The song talks about what Jesus did for our sake. He suffered and died for sinful people who are not worthy to be saved, but saved by Jesus anyway.

As we reflect this Christmas, may we also meditate the meaning of the song.

We Are the Reason

by: Avalon

Verse 1:
G                           Am/F#    B         Em
As little children we would dream of Christmas morn
    Dm7     G         C       G/B       Am7
and all the gifts and toys we knew we'd find
       B        Em           Em/D
but we never realized a baby born one blessed
Em/C#             Cmaj7         Am7    D7
night gave us the greatest gift of our lives

Chorus:
G                      Am/G
We are the reason that He gave His life
Dsus4       D              G
we are the reason that He suffered and died
D/F# Em                           Am7
to a world that was lost, He gave all He could
        D7                    G
give to show us the reason to live

Verse 2:
G              Am/F#               B       Em
As the years go by we learned more about gifts
Dm7    G     C          G/B       Am7
giving of ourselves and what that means
     B               Em           Em/D
On a dark and cloudy day a man hung crying
       Em/C#           Cmaj7   Am7        D7
in the rain because of love,   because of love

BRIDGE:
Eb                              Bb/D
I've finally found a reason for living,
        Bbm                     Ab/C
it's in giving every part of my heart to Him
   Abm/B                Eb/Ab       Cm7
In all that I do, every word that I say
   F                       Ab       E
I'll be giving my all just for Him, for Him

Chorus 2:
    Amaj7                  Bm7/A
And we are the reason that He gave His life
Bm/Ab      G/C#           F#m7         A
we are the reason that He suffered and died
Dmaj9               A/C#
to a world that was lost
        Bm           Bm7/A
He gave all He could give
   Bm/Ab       G/C#      F#m  Fmaj7
to show us the reason to live
D                  A
He is my reason to live
