Reason for the Season

You are the one,

you are the reason

for me to be alive

in this season



Lord I know you're here for me,

and that you feel for me nothing but love.

Even in My sin you're a rock like a boulder,

lifting me up on to your shoulder,

and carrying me as far as I need.

Lord, I know that you'll never leave.



You are the reason for the season,

and you give me one to believe in,

someone to trust, and someone to hold,

someone to keep me warm

when my soul's gone cold.



Lord I know it's the season that you'll appear

because I keep feeling you drawing ever near.

So I ask this of you today.

Please forgive my sins,

so I can fight for you today.



In this world there is evil I see.

Satan's preparing his demons

while you wash us clean.

Just like the song by the band called Stryper,

I see you Lord

ready to walk through the fire.



You are the Reason for the Season Lord,

and in you, I will never grow bored.

For I know you love,

it lasts for eternity,

and it feels like a dove

flying over the city,



You are the reason for the season.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I actually got the idea for this poem from a couple of songs by an 80's Christian Hair Metal band called Stryper.  Even though they don't know it, they played a role in me accepting Jesus Christ, and this is my thanks to them, perhaps they will see it someday...
