| When tears don’t hide the tragedies
|
| And all you want is a reason for the world
|
| No comfort in the greeting card
|
| Cause God is good
|
| But life’s still hard
|
| And your heart just wants a reason for the world
|
| Maybe the reason for the pain
|
| Is so we would pray for strength
|
| And maybe the reason for the strength
|
| Is so that we would not lose hope
|
| And maybe the reason for all hope
|
| Is so that we could face the world
|
| And the reason for the world
|
| Is to make us long for home
|
| For God so loved your broken heart
|
| He sent his son to where you are
|
| And he died
|
| To give a reason for the world
|
| So lift your sorrows to the one
|
| Whose plan for you has just begun
|
| And rests here in the hands that hold the world
|
| Cause maybe the reason for the pain
|
| Is so we would pray for strength
|
| And maybe the reason for the strength
|
| Is so that we would not lose hope
|
| And maybe the reason for all hope
|
| Is so that we could face the world
|
| And the reason for the world
|
| Is to make us long for home
|
| Well I know you’re past the point of broken
|
| Surrounded by your fear
|
| I know your feet are tired and weary
|
| From the road that you walked down here
|
| But just keep your eyes on heaven
|
| And know that you are not alone
|
| Remember the reason for the world
|
| No ear has heard
|
| No eye has seen
|
| Not even in your wildest dreams
|
| A beauty that awaits beyond this world
|
| When you look into the eyes of grace
|
| And hear the voice of mercy say
|
| Child, welcome to the reason for the world |
