MercyMe's 'All Because Of This' explores the mystery of Christian joy and behavior in a troubled world. The song asks why believers sing, smile, and stand firm when circumstances are difficult, answering that it is because they have experienced God's love, hope, and holiness. This personal encounter with the divine transforms their perspective and motivates their actions, making their faith visible to others who wonder at their resilience. The lyrics emphasize that the source of this inexplicable peace and joy is not human strength but a relationship with God, which becomes the foundation for a life that points beyond itself.

Why do we do the things we do
How can we sing when there seems no reason to
How do we smile when there's not much to smile about
When the world is down who are we to stand and shout
They wonder why we do the things we do
[CHORUS]
It's all because of this
It's all because of this
We've tasted love, tasted hope, tasted holiness
[REPEAT]
And they wonder why, we do the things we do
