We were the Reason (Karena Kita)
English:
As little children, we would dream of Christmas morn
And all the gifts and toys we knew we’d find
But we never realised a baby born one blessed night
Gave us the greatest gift of our livesWe were the reason that He gave his life
We were the reason that He suffered and died
To a world that was lost He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live
And all the gifts and toys we knew we’d find
But we never realised a baby born one blessed night
Gave us the greatest gift of our livesWe were the reason that He gave his life
We were the reason that He suffered and died
To a world that was lost He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live
As the years went by we learned more of our gifts
The giving of ourselves and what that means
On a dark and cloudy day a man hung crying in the rain
Because of love
Because of love
The giving of ourselves and what that means
On a dark and cloudy day a man hung crying in the rain
Because of love
Because of love
I’ve finally found the reason for living
It’s in giving every part of my heart to Him
In all that I do, every word that I say
I’ll be giving my all just for Him, for Him
It’s in giving every part of my heart to Him
In all that I do, every word that I say
I’ll be giving my all just for Him, for Him
Indonesia:
Waktu kecil kita merindukan natal
Hadiah yang indah dan menawan
Namun tak menyadari seorang bayi t’lah lahir
Bawa kes’lamatan ‘tuk manusia
Hadiah yang indah dan menawan
Namun tak menyadari seorang bayi t’lah lahir
Bawa kes’lamatan ‘tuk manusia
Waktu pun berlalu dan kita pun tahu
Anug’rah yang besar dari Bapa
Yang relakan anak-Nya disiksa dan disalibkan
Di bukit kalvari kar’na kasih
Anug’rah yang besar dari Bapa
Yang relakan anak-Nya disiksa dan disalibkan
Di bukit kalvari kar’na kasih
Karena kita Dia menderita
Karena kita Dia disalibkan
Agar dunia yang hilang dis’lamatkan
Dari hukuman kekal
Karena kita Dia disalibkan
Agar dunia yang hilang dis’lamatkan
Dari hukuman kekal
T’lah kudapati jalan kehidupan
Tatkala kubukakan hatiku bagi Dia
Dalam ucapanku, dalam segalanya
Ku s’lalu memuji Dia… puji Dia…
Tatkala kubukakan hatiku bagi Dia
Dalam ucapanku, dalam segalanya
Ku s’lalu memuji Dia… puji Dia…
Semoga lagu ini kembali mengingatkan kita betap besarnya cinta kasih Allah akan dunia ini. Yesus sampai harus turun dari sorga, menjadi sama dengan manusia, dan mati di kayu salib. Semuanya itu karena cinta-Nya kepada kita. Jadi jangan pernah menolak atau menyia-yiakan kasih yang begitu besar ini. Nyatakanlah iman dan percaya kita kepada Allah. Bagikanlah kabar sukacita penyelamatan umat manusia kepada orang lain di sekitar kita. Haleluya!
