[Verse 1]
Mama dragged us to church every Sunday
And Heaven knows I didn't want to go
The preacher talked too long and I didn't like those songs
That hour and fifteen went by way too slow

[Pre-Chorus]
When I asked my mother, "Why do we bother?"
She smiled and said from deep down in her soul

[Chorus]
Love is the reason, love is the reason
Oh, love is the reason that I go
Standing up for what I believe in
That's where my heart is leading
And love is the reason that I go

[Verse 2]
Time went by and we got a littlе older
My brother signed up to wеar that army green
Fighting the good fight and leaving home behind
But giving everything to be all he could be

[Pre-Chorus]
And I asked my brother, "Why do you bother?"
And he stood up tall and said these words to me

[Chorus]
Love is the reason, love is the reason
Yeah, love is the reason that I go
I'm gonna fight for what I believe in
That's where my heart is leading
And love is the reason that I go

[Bridge]
Love is strong and love is kind
Love will go the extra mile
It ain't scared to pay the price
Love will always sacrifice

[Verse 3]
Walking up the hill that stood before Him
Carrying that cross to bear our shame
If I could ask Him why He was laying down His life
I know that I would hear my Jesus say

[Chorus]
Love is the reason, love is the reason
Yeah, love is the reason that I go
I'll give my life for what I believe in
That's where my heart is leading
And love is the reason that I go
Oh, love is the reason that I go
