Lyrics
[Intro]
Echoes in the night, a message burning bright
Feeling the pulse, love woven tight
[Chorus]
Do you know the reason why; Jesus had to die?
Do you know the reason why, Jesus Christ, had to die?
He died just for you. Jesus died, yes for me.
Jesus went to the cross and so we could be free!
[Verse 1]
Look around, can you see the night,
Heavy hearts in the street, searching for the light?
Promises broken, dreams fade away,
But hope stands firm, it’s a brand new day.
[Pre-Chorus]
Lift your voice, share the story,
From the ashes, rise in glory
He took our pain, yes He broke the chains,
Walking with us through the sun and the rain.
[Chorus]
Do you know the reason why; Jesus had to die?
Do you know the reason why, Jesus Christ, had to die?
He died just for you. Jesus died, yes for me.
Jesus went to the cross and so we could be free!
[Bridge]
Jesus came into the world and took our sins away,
God sent His only Son and gave us a way to win.
Now we have a choice, to be a child of the King,
Jesus went to the cross to save us and make us free!
[Lead]
Do you know the reason why; Jesus had to die,
Do you know the reason why; Jesus had to die.
[Chorus Repeat]
Do you know the reason why; Jesus had to die?
Do you know the reason why, Jesus Christ, had to die?
He died just for you. Jesus died, yes for me.
Jesus went to the cross and so we could be free!
[Outro]
With open hearts we rise, lifted by His grace,
Together as one, we run this holy race.
Echoing the reason, love is in the air,
Jesus died for us, for a world that He cares.
