We are the reason that Jesus gave His all for us

I was glancing through the files and found this song which I've not listened since 2004. As I was listening, my heart was so heavy and remembered how much Jesus loved me.

I am the reason that He gave His life - so that I have life,
I am the reason that He gave up all - so that I have all,
I am the reason that He suffered - so that I enjoy,
I am the reason that He became lonely - so that I am not lonely,
I am the reason that He became rejected - so that I'm accepted.

If I'm suffering and sad, Jesus had suffered in vain.
If I'm lonely, Jesus became lonely in vain.
If I'm rejected, Jesus was rejected in vain.

Thank you Jesus, that You gave up Yours for me. No other gods can ever do that. Only You have done it. Not can, but already done.. Praise Jesus!

Lord Jesus, I cannot live without You...

We Are The Reason
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

Chorus:
We are the reason that
He gave His life,
We are 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 go 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.

Bridge:
I’ve finally found a 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.

Chorus :
And we are the reason that
He gave His life.
We are 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,
He is my reason to live.

wah!! cool leh.. Songs of Jesus always touch our hearts. I remember I was saved when a song touched my heart so much.. Praise the Lord! The only thing that spoils everything is a classmate of mine who can cause a person to stop receiving Christ by telling that we should not accept Christ just by listening to the songs like that. duh.. What the heck! If songs can lead us to receive Christ, what's impossible with God? Nothing.. :D
