Reason For The Season (on 1986 re-release)
. . .



Verse 1
The hair is long and the screams are loud and clear.
The clothes are tight, earrings dangling from the ears.
No matter how we look, we'll always praise His name.
And, if you believe, you've got to do the same.


Chorus
Loud, clear, let the people hear.
Scream, shout, show what it's all about.
Loud, clear, let the people hear.
Scream, shout, show what it's all about.


Verse 2
Some of us were always pushed around in schools.
That's why I wrote this song to sing to pushin' fools.
At least we can say we love doin' what we do.
And we're here to say that you can have salvation too.


Repeat Chorus


. . .



Verse 1
I've changed my ways from wrong to right.
The devil never pays, no, he robs just like a thief in the night
So many bands give the devil all the glory
It's hard to understand, we want to change the story

We want to rock one way, on and on.
You'll see the light some day
All say Jesus is the way.



Verse 2
Satan is a fool and it's so insane.
Some people think he's cool, you play with fire,
You'll feel the pain.
Why lose when you could win? Give God a try.
The devil's not your friend, the truth is not a lie.

I've changed my ways from wrong to wright
Evil never pays, no, the truth is not a lie.



Repeat Chorus


. . .



Verse 1
Some people think they're happy, livin' for themselves.
But when they're sad they long for something else.
And you can find the answer in an honest way.
To get you thru the sadness, to start a whole new day.
We've found a life that keeps us happy.
Yes, we have and we'll live eternally.
We'll always have the light to see, and so can you.


Chorus
Are you feeling lonely?
Are you feeling blue?
Does your life seem empty?
You know what to do.


Verse 2
You say you've go some troubles, yeah, oh so many downs.
You need a light to lift you off the ground.
And if your life feels senseless, just accept the Lord.
And He'll make you see things you never have seen before.
An everlasting life abounding, oh yeah.
Yes, He will and He's always giving more.
And His light will never stop shining, it's for you, yes it is.


Repeat Chorus


. . .



Verse 1
I was born to rock and I'll give it all I've got
I'm sure these boys will say the same.
We're rockin for the rock, and I know we'll never stop.
And we well never be ashamed.
We're here to rock for you an rock is what we'll do
Until your body feels the sound.
So don't be afraid to shout cause that's what it's all about.
We've got to spread it all around.


Chorus
Co'mon rock, rock, rock.
Co'mon never stop.
Co'mon rock, rock, rock.
Co'mon never stop.


Verse 2
It's catching on so fast, we've got to make it last
But we can't ever low the key.
That opens all the doors and keeps us wanting more.
It's all up to you and me.
So, let's give it all we've got until we reach the top.
Together we can make a stand.
We're here to rock for you and rock is what we'll do.
Co'mon and help us rock the land.


Repeat Chorus


. . .



Verse 1
Won't you open up your heart and let me come inside.
Please let the loving start to climb.
I know you may may wonder why I've come to hold you tight.
I don't want you to cry tonight.
I will take you in my arms and sing your favorite song.
As i tell you of your charms all night long.
You've been hurt over again, with all my love I say I am
Holding out my hand.


Chorus
You won't be lonely anymore.
You won't be lonely anymore.


Verse 2
For so long you've been in rain, but now you're warm and dry.
You've been through all the pain and now it's blue skies.
You'll be happy and secure as long as you are mine and as
Long as I am yours.


Repeat Chorus
Won't you open up your hear and let me come inside.
Please let the loving start to climb.
I will take you in my arms and I will hold you tight.
You won't be lonely tonight.


. . .



Verse 1
I was so confused, not knowing what to do with myself.
I was being used, blinded I was headed for hell.
Then God saved me, pulled me from the heat.
It's always on my mind.
What a blessing that was sent to me.
Together we will shine and...


Chorus
I'm loving you.
I'm loving you.
I'm loving you.
I'm loving you.


Verse 2
Anger in my heart, life was such a drag for me.
Then I made a start to serve the living God, now I'm free.
You're my whole life, you're my lasting dream.
It's always on my mind.
What a blessing that was sent to me.
Together we will shine and...

Repeat Chorus


. . .



You know, I really love you
Your love is beautiful, lasting and true
I searched for a true love
for such a long, long time
Now my search has ended
Yes, cause you are mine

(Chorus)
I'll always love you
and I'll always tell you so
As long as I'm with you
My love, I'll always show

Whenever I'm sad and feeling real blue
I begin to feel happy as I sit and think of you
I think of your face and your personality
You are so beautiful, you mean everything to me

I'll always love you,
and I'll always tell you so
As long as I'm with you
My love I'll always show


. . .



Verse 1
You, you say that you've got it figured out
That life's about, you do what you want to.
You, you walk the tightrope of unbelief
Can't you see? His way is reality.

We all know it's better to give that receive
Then why don't we give God the glory?
Don't hide it, don't fight it, just beleive.



Chorus 1
He is the reason for the season.
He is the reason for today.
He is the reason for the season.
Celebrate, celebrate.


Verse 2
You, your life can be a holiday
Everyday when He is with you.
Hey, let's get back to what it's all about.
Shout it out. Christ is the reason.

We all know it's better to give that receive
His gift is for those who beleive.
You got it if you want it, just beleive.



Chorus 2
He is the reason for the season.
He is the reason for today.
He is the reason for the season.
Celebrate.


Repeat Chorus 1 and 2
