These Are the Reasons

(Ray Griff)



Whenever I feel I've got nothing to live for

That life's just a four letter word

I stop and I look at the beauty around me

And something inside me is thirst.



The deep winding rivers that flow on forever

The mountains that reach to the sky

I find myself counting my blessings

And thanking the good Lord that I am alive.



These are the reasons that keep me believin'

Whenever I question my birth

These are the reasons that keep me believin'

My reasons for living on earth.

I look at the sunrise that comes up each morning

The sunset when dark shadows fall

I walk through a garden where flowers are blooming

And I know there's a place for us all.



These are the reasons that keep me believin'

Whenever I question my birth

These are the reasons that keep me believin'

My reasons for living on earth...
