[Intro: Chandler Moore]
Concerned about His children

[Verse 1: Mav City Gospel Choir, Kirk Franklin]
(Someone asked a question) Someone asked a question
(Why do we sing?) Why do we sing?
(When we lift our hands to Jesus) When we lift our hands to Jesus
(What do we really mean?) What do we really mean?
(Someone may be wondering) Someone may be wondering
(When we sing our song) When we sing our song
(At times we may be crying) At times we may bе crying
(And nothing's even wrong) And nothing's evеn wrong




[Chorus: Mav City Gospel Choir & Brandon Lake, Kirk Franklin]
(Wave your hand in the air and say, "I sing because") I sing because I'm happy
(I sing because I'm free) I sing because I'm free
(His eye is on the sparrow) His eye is on the sparrow
(That's the reason why I sing) That's the reason why I sing
(I need somebody to help me say, "Glory")
Glory, hallelujah
(You're the reason why) You're the reason why I sing
(Say, "Glory, hallelujah") Glory, hallelujah
(You're the reason why I sing) You're the reason why I sing

[Verse 2: Mav City Gospel Choir, Kirk Franklin]
(And when the song is over) And when the song is over
(We've all said "Amen") We've all said "Amen"
(And your heart just keep on singing) And your heart just keeps on singing
(And the song will never end) And the song will never end
(And if somebody asks you) And if somebody asks you
(Was it just a show?) Was it just a show?
(Lift your hands and be a witness) Lift your hands and be a witness
(And tell the whole world, "No") And tell the whole world, "No"
(Shh, and when we cross that river) And when we cross that river
(To study war no more) To study war no more
(We will sing our song to Jesus) We will sing our song to Jesus
(The One whom we adore) The One whom we adore

[Chorus: Mav City Gospel Choir, Kirk Franklin]
(Ayy, I sing because) I sing because I'm happy
(I need for you to open up your mouth and say) I sing because I'm free
(I need some free people to say) His eye is on the sparrow
(And that's the reason why I) That's the reason why I sing
(Say, "Glory") Glory, hallelujah
(I give the praises to You) I give the praises to You
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, glory, hallelujah) Glory, hallelujah
(You're the reason why) You're the reason why I sing

[Outro: Mav City Gospel Choir, Kirk Franklin]

(You're the reason why) You're the reason why I sing
(You're the reason why, Jesus) You're the reason why I sing
(You're the song in my storm, Jesus) You're the reason why I sing
(You're the melody in my heart) You're the reason why I sing
(Last time, hold it, hold it out) You're the reason why I sing
