Story Behind The Song
I heard the melody and chorus in my head one day, and had to do something with it... especially that Major Six chord.
Song Description
Our reactions sometimes are accompanied by judgement, which needs to be confessed and replaced with love. Trusting God often looks differently than we might originally think.

Lyrics
THE REASON FOR IT ALL
w/m by Chris Blanton
VERSE 1
Nobody but You can see the real me.
I try to show Your love, but I?m so clumsy.
It?s tough to find the right words for my emotion.
Don?t wanna cause a scene or stir up a commotion...
But You know my heart, and You search my thoughts,
so I trust You, Lord, with this day.
CHORUS
After all is said and done,
You will be the one who knows me
better than I know myself,
cause You made me,
and put this love within me,
and You will be the reason for it all.
VERSE 2
So they don?t know about the reasons why I do things
the way do because I wanna show Your glory.
But I believe that You will openup their eyes to see
that You have poured out Your love eternally...
And You know their hearts, and You search their thoughts,
so I trust You, Lord, with this day.
CHORUS
After all is said and done,
You will be the one who knows me
better than I know myself,
cause You made me,
and put this love within me,
and You will be the reason for it all.
BRIDGE
I cannot be responsible for other people?s actions.
Though it hurts me, I don?t wanna start another faction.
I choose forgiveness, confessing my reaction.
You are their God, too. And I trust You
CHORUS
After all is said and done,
You will be the one who knows me
better than I know myself,
cause You made me,
and put this love within me,
and You will be the reason for it all.
You will be the reason for it all.
