about

Who we want to be, and why

lyrics

Because (1999)
I live because He lives
I do because He did
I want to spend each day
Livin' like my Father lives
I love because He loves
I forgive because He forgave me
I am because He Is and I will be forever more
Livin' every day because of grace

I will always remember how You treated me
Forgiving everything I owed You
Even though I was guilty
How can I ever think to hold a grudge
I have no choice but love like I've been loved
I have no choice but love like I've been loved
