"The Reason For The World"

 "The Reason For The World"

Matthew West

There are no word in times like these

When tears don't hide the tragedies

And all you want is a reason for the world 

No comfort in a greeting card 

'cause God is good, but life's still hard

And your heart just wants a reason for the reason for the world 

But maybe the reason for the pain

Is so that 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 our hope

Is so that we can 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 rest here in the hands that hold the world 

But maybe the reason for the pain

Is so that 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 our hope

Is so that we can 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 tried and weary

From the road that you walk 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 dream

The beauty that awaits beyond the world

When you look into the eyes of grace

And hear the voice of mercy say

Child, welcome to the reason for the world
