What a savior, what a love divine
How we need you with us all the time
How could we forget you; we will not forget
[CHORUS]
You are the reason the lost will be found again
You are the reason the last will be first and when
We see your glory, Jesus, we�??ll see the reason
Love is your voice, and you give us a song to sing
Love is the cross where you gave everything
If the world has a hope to believe in
You are the reason
Not in what we do, but in what you�??ve done
Not in our strength but yours, you rescued us
We�??re your children, and you are the father who loves
How we need you and Lord, you are more than enough
[CHORUS]
We will bow down; we will look up
We will rejoice because of your goodness
We will sing loud, we will cry out
Let all the earth resound and tell of your glory
[CHORUS]
