Avalon's song "Wonder Why" challenges believers to live out their faith authentically so that the world sees the transformative power of God's love. The lyrics reflect on how people often miss the truth despite searching, and emphasize that genuine love and changed lives are the most compelling evidence of the gospel. The chorus urges Christians to shine their light and let go of selfishness, suggesting that when they live with passion and love, others will take notice and wonder about the source of that difference. It's a call to live the gospel unashamedly, trusting that a single heart can impact the world.

Why, Why tell me do you wonder why
Some can look so hard and miss the truth
Some will stumble over it a hundred times
And never ever see the living proof
Well there's a kind of love this world could never deny
Let everybody see it in our lives
[Chorus:]
The world will wonder why
If you and I will shine his light
And hearts discover life when we decide to let ours go
We've got to give it up
And live the love
That opened our eyes
Live your life the world will wonder why
Why, Why someone try and tell me why
We wouldn't want it any other way
A heart can change before our very eyes
Well, I've seen the difference that love can make
Where is the kind of love this world could never explain
it's time to live the gospel unashamed
[Chorus]
If we were living with a passion
What would be the reaction
I know a single heart can change the world
If we were loving with a strong love
Then their eyes would see
And the world might believe
[Chorus x2]
