There Is a Reason

I've seen hard times and I've been told

There isn't any wonder that I fall

Why do we suffer, crossing off the years

There must be a reason for it all

I've trusted in You, Jesus, to save me from my sin

Heaven is the place I call my home

But I keep on getting caught up in this world I'm living in

And Your voice it sometimes fades before I know

Hurtin' brings my heart to You, crying with my need

Depending on Your love to carry me

The love that shed His blood for all the world to see

This must be the reason for it all

Hurtin' brings my heart to You, a fortress in the storm

When what I wrap my heart around is gone

I give my heart so easily to the ruler of this world

When the one who loves me most will give me all

In all the things that cause me pain You give me eyes to see

I do believe but help my unbelief

I've seen hard times and I've been told

There is a reason for it all
