Song about religion and politics, a little counterintuitive I'm sure.
I think our country needs the countercultural love of Jesus more than ever. It could be a common ground that both sides can experience to come together for the good of our country.
I hope you enjoy this small effort toward turning the tide because love can’t be outdone.
THE REASON FOR ME
VERSE:
Go ahead and spew your, white washed rendition
Convolute and misconstrue our, old, traditions
Duplicate and replicate news of every nature
But your gossip’s not my gospel, I love my Savior
FIRST CHORUS:
I’m more than this body, not defined by your story
My hope is in the love of God
In grace He bestowed my destiny
His love became the reason for me.
His love became the reason for me.
VERSE:
Were the poor, strangers and exiles refused in His day
Your way or my way, it can be both I pray
Our parties need to be in communion with each other
Let me show you where we go, from here my brother
SECOND CHORUS:
Be more than your body, not defined by their story
Put your hope in the love of God
In grace He bestowed your destiny
His love became the reason for you.
His love became the reason for you.
BRIDGE:
You see,
Life’s not about us, & not about their will
Life’s about love, the love we’re made to become
Let our spirit sing, cuz’ love can’t be outdone
THIRD CHORUS:
Be more than your body, not defined by their story
Put your hope in the love of God
In grace He bestowed our destiny
His love became the reason for us.
His love became the reason for us.
His love can’t be outdone, it’s the only reason for us
