Lyrics
1. Love is the reason, love is the answer,
That is why Jesus came down to earth;
He came to free us now and forever,
Blesséd salvation, grace of new birth.
Love is the reason, love is the answer,
That is why He hung on Calv’ry’s tree;
Love is the reason, love is the answer,
By grace He saved us and set us free.
2. Love is the reason, love is the answer,
He came to set the prisoner free;
He will transform you when you accept Him,
Make the lame walk, and make the blind see.
Love is the reason, love is the answer,
That is why He hung on Calv’ry’s tree;
Love is the reason, love is the answer,
By grace He saved us and set us free.
3. Love is the reason, love is the answer,
Jesus came down your sins to atone;
Redeemed the lost sheep, saved for the Father,
Saving through faith and by grace alone.
Love is the reason, love is the answer,
That is why He hung on Calv’ry’s tree;
Love is the reason, love is the answer,
By grace He saved us and set us free.
