YOU’RE THE REASON I BELIEVE
(K. Dean & J. Wilson)
© Ochiltree 136 Publishing (2000) 

It has taken far too long, to see these hopes play out
How will these laboured words turn our song around?
It's like staring at the clock – wishing you were here
Why can't I tell myself: I deserve you?
Can you begin to count all my failing virtues?
They're so easy to attest, it only takes a fool

You walk a mile child, I'll run a million
You raise a finger, I'll move a mountain
You found the arrow, bring it to me
You're the reason I believe

Why must I insist on wasting so much time?
I need that discipline, to put me back in line
It seems I'm keeping you away, and bringing myself down

You state your claim child, I'll show no mercy
You dress my wounds then, I'll face an army
You let the sun in, lie here with me
You're the reason I believe

All those men are not saints – yet, I'm a sinner too
T’was grace that brought you here with me
and grace will see us through
