New Christmas Hymns - The Reason Why He Came

Here is a modern Christmas hymn, a beautiful and powerful song praising the coming of Christ into the world and celebrating the meaning of the Incarnation.

From the album, “The Reason Why He Came,” a collection of 10 contemporary Christian Christmas songs. These are modern Christmas hymns and praise songs, celebrating that wonderful reason – that perfect love – that led the Son of God from the mansions of heaven to the lowly stable stall.

The Reason Why He Came

Firelight and candle glow, festive greens and Christmas snow,

Carolers who stroll along, lifting up the season's song,

All remind me Christmastime is here.

For there is a light that came, to a world of sin and shame,

Shone as angel voices praised, and as shepherds stood amazed.

For the Savior of our race drew near.

Sentimental Manger scene, what can this great myst'ry mean,

Baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, mother poised in calm repose,

On a sweet and silent, holy night.

As the infant Jesus cried, God with us did now reside,

Came to earth to suffer loss, to be raised upon the cross,

All our wrongs the Savior would make right.

The days they come, the days they go, it's Christmas once again,

The treasures and traditions stay the same.

And yet the story's ever new as once more I'm reborn,

Salvation is the reason why He came.

And in each gift and blessing shared, my spirit sings with joy,

The child in me comes once more shining through,

For Christmas brings alive again, the hope of life redeemed,

The love He shared that lives in me and you.

Ornaments upon the tree, signs of love and family,

Secrets shared and Memories made, never from our hearts to fade,

Warmth and welcome, precious times to hold.

Every sacred living sign from eternity is mine,

Linking past with future hope, climbing Zion's joyful slope,

This our journey in the stories told.

The days they come, the days they go, it's Christmas once again,

The treasures and traditions stay the same.

And yet the story's ever new as once more I'm reborn,

Salvation is the reason why He came.

And in each gift and blessing shared, my spirit sings with joy,

The child in me comes once more shining through,

For Christmas brings alive again, the hope of life redeemed,

The love He shared that lives in me and you.

So I seek the crèche and cross, my life broken, heaven's loss

For they lead to empty tomb, resurrection, heaven's womb,

Christmas links my life to heaven's peace.

All I celebrate with grace, now creates a sacred space,

Where in awe I grasp the love, that descended from above.

Christmas joy within will never cease.

The days they come, the days they go, it's Christmas once again,

The treasures and traditions stay the same.

And yet the story's ever new as once more I'm reborn,

Salvation is the reason why He came.

And in each gift and blessing shared, my spirit sings with joy,

The child in me comes once more shining through,

For Christmas brings alive again, the hope of life redeemed,

The love He shared that lives in me and you.
