Reason I Sing (Acoustic) - Phil Wickham

He has brought us together Each of us a different gift to bring We'll serve Him forever Even if the cost is everything He has called us to be faithful So with one heart, we give this offering The reason we sing The reason we lift our voice Is more than just making harmony The reason we sing Is to praise the One Who gave His son to be The reason we sing More than just an emotion His spirit gives us joy That we can't hide We will not be silent We've got to let the world Hear what's inside And as we praise Him With our music Jesus is the one we glorify The reason we sing The reason we lift our voice Is more than just making harmony The reason we sing Is to praise the One Who gave His son to be The reason we sing

I can sing, I can sing, I can sing better I can knit a scarf but you can't knit a sweater When I'm underwater I couldn't be wetter Never go swimmin' in a mohair sweater I can dance, I can dance, I can dance faster I tried to keep up but it was a disaster One more move and I'm gonna be the master So crank it up loud on the ghetto blaster I can eat, I can eat, I can eat more And when it's not fresh from the local store There's a little town in Labrador Where she sells seashells by the shoe store I can speak, I can speak, I can speak quicker Imagine I made a way to make everyone currently frowning snicker And on the guitar he could be a little slicker Jimmy always said I was a good flat picker

I've been patiently waiting I can't think of the words to say And it's getting frustrating This is honestly killing me I've been meaning to ask you But my awkward tongue gets in the way There's a thousand things I want to say So break some pieces off of me I can only wait until the end Go break some pieces off of me Baby, this is just the beginning I know you know just what to say And I'm yours for the taking Conversation could make my day But the one complication is your tongue just makes no sense to me Oh, when we get to the bottom of this So break some pieces off of me I can only wait until the end Go break some pieces off of me Baby, this is just the beginning You know I'll wait forever for this Trust me So break some pieces off of me Baby, this is just the beginning We burn ourselves alive! So break some pieces off of me I can only wait until when we get to the bottom of this Go break some pieces off for me Baby, this is just the beginning Baby, this is just the beginning

How great the chasm that lay between us How high the mountain I could not climb In desperation, I turned to heaven And spoke your name into the night Then through the darkness Your loving kindness Tore through the shadows of my soul The work is finished, the end is written Jesus Christ, my living hope Who could imagine so great a mercy? What heart could fathom such boundless grace? The God of ages stepped down from glory To wear my sin and bear my shame The cross has spoken, I am forgiven The king of kings calls me His own Beautiful savior, I'm yours forever Jesus Christ, my living hope Hallelujah, praise the one who set me free Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me You have broken every chain There's salvation in your name Jesus Christ, my living hope Hallelujah, praise the one who set me free Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me You have broken every chain There's salvation in your name Jesus Christ, my living hope Then came the morning that sealed the promise Your buried body began to breathe Out of the silence, the roaring lion Declared the grave has no claim on me Then came the morning that sealed the promise Your buried body began to breathe Out of the silence, the roaring lion Declared the grave has no claim on me Jesus, yours is the victory, whoa! Hallelujah, praise the one who set me free Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me You have broken every chain There's salvation in your name Jesus Christ, my living hope Hallelujah, praise the one who set me free Hallelujah, death has lost its grip on me You have broken every chain There's salvation in your name Jesus Christ, my living hope Jesus Christ, my living hope Oh God, you are my living hope

You wrote a letter and You signed Your name I read every word of it, page by page You said that You'd be coming, coming for me soon Oh my God, I'll be ready for You I wanna run on greener pastures I wanna dance on higher hills I wanna drink from sweeter waters in the misty morning chill And my soul is getting restless for the place where I belong I can't wait to join the angels and sing my Heaven song I hear Your voice and I catch my breath "Well done my child, enter in and rest" Tears of joy roll down my cheek It's beautiful beyond my wildest dreams I wanna run on greener pastures I wanna dance on higher hills I wanna drink from sweeter waters in the misty morning chill And my soul is getting restless for the place where I belong I can't wait to join the angels and sing I wanna run on greener pastures I wanna dance on higher hills I wanna drink from sweeter waters in the misty morning chill And my soul is getting restless for the place where I belong I can't wait to join the angels and sing No, I can't wait to join the angels and sing my Heaven song
