[Verse 1]
          C#
As little children
         F                  Bbm
We would dream of Christmas morn
   Abm               F#
Of all the gifts and toys
   C#/F      Ebm
We knew we'd find
       F          Bbm
But we never realized
       Bbm7/Ab          Gm7b5
A baby born one blessed night
            Ebm           F#      Ab
Gave us the greatest gift of our lives

[Chorus]
Bb          F/A
We are the reason
     Gm
That He gave His life
Cm          F
We are the reason
        Bbsus         Bb   Am
That He suffered and died
     F/G            Gm7
To a world that was lost
        Cm
He gave all He could give
   Fsus        F          Bbm     Ebm    Ab
To show us the reason to live

[Verse 2]
       C#
As the years went by
   F                   Bbm
we learned more of our gifts
    Abm          F#
And giving of ourselves
    C#/F      Ebm
and what that means
     F               Bbm
On a dark and cloudy day
           Bbm7/Ab      Gm7b5
a man hung dying in the rain
           F#
Because of love,
           C#/F
because of love,
           Cm    Bb/D   Eb   F
because of love...

[Chorus]
Bb
We are the reason

We are the reason

That He suffered and died
     F/G            Gm7
To a world that was lost

He gave all He could give
   Fsus        F      D/F#     Gm
To show us the reason     to   live

To live, to live...

Everytime I see the cross

For you and me
