when you need a reason
Because I am a new creation
Because my past is in the past
Because I’m more than just a conqueror
Because I’m stronger than all that
Because it’s You who now define me
Because I know who I can be
Because You’ve given me a new name
Because I’m going to be that man
Because
Because the Truth has brought me freedom
Because my treasure’s somewhere else
Because I want a life that’s fruitful
Because I live for something more/else
Because my life can make a difference
Because there’s power in my hands
Because these little ones depend on me
Because You say that I’m the one
Because
Because I’ve been enslaved by goodness
Because it’s Christ in me who lives
Because You always make a way out
Because Your love outmuscles death
Because You plucked me from the darkness
Because You’re proud to call me son
Because You say that You’ll remain in me
And Father I’ll remain in You
Because
