Alison Krauss - There Is A Reason Lyrics






I've seen hard times and I've been told
There isn't any wonder that I fall
Why do we suffer, crossing off the years
There must be a reason for it all

I've trusted in You, Jesus, to save me from my sin
Heaven is the place I call my home
But I keep on getting caught up in this world I'm living in
And Your voice it sometimes fades before I know

Hurtin' brings my heart to You, crying with my need
Depending on Your love to carry me
The love that shed His blood for all the world to see
This must be the reason for it all

Hurtin' brings my heart to You, a fortress in the storm
When what I wrap my heart around is gone
I give my heart so easily to the ruler of this world
When the one who loves me most will give me all

In all the things that cause me pain You give me eyes to see
I do believe but help mine unbelief
I've seen hard times and I've been told
There is a reason for it all

    If I never suffered
    how would I, how could I
    understand the suffering
    You suffered for me, for us all.

    If I never suffered at all
    could I, would I
    even look forward
    to my heavenly abode.

    2 Corinthians 4:16-18 NKJV - "Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal." Thank you, #SidsCardShop, for sharing this.

  35. l.... ....

    #SidsCardShop, thank you so much for sharing this. I heard it tonight for the first time, and it blessed me beyond measure. You posted it in 2008 "for such a time as this". Esther 4:14 God bless you!

    S.... J....

    Scott Jones: Thank you for expressing your appreciation. God bless you.

  38. g.... ....

    One of my criterion for judging a song to be truly great is its ability to make me cry. More than once. This is a truly great song, with deep, deep meaning regarding our innate spiritual longings and struggles. And I cannot imagine anyone, or any group, more perfectly suited to communicate its message. Thank you Ron!

  39. N.... F....

  40. P.... ....

    Just a nice message, remember to give yourself a chance a reason to live life with understanding and forgiveness. We get so complacent in our everyday lives we forget the miracle of life, that love brought us here. Happy Easter!

    This to will pass, even in our darker days when the sun is in shackle and shattered to a thousand winds.And the best that can be done is to carry a torch to illuminate the way, who knows sometimes even in great pain and struggle there is memories of cunning and valor that make it through to lighter pasture , and all the world is story and whimsy of the squalor that passed for in the halls of Hell's bowel and Tartarus Depth.

  57. P.... ....

    I hope the new year brings everyone here good fortune and daily blessings. Be kind to the ones who love you the most. Be tolerant of those who cut you off.

    P.... ....

    PocoPortillo: Your two "be" rules show deep wisdom. Our nature is to be cordial and courteous to friends and strangers, then unleash feelings of disappointment, frustration and anger on those with whom we feel safe - the ones whom we know love us. This is a mistake we must guard against every day, by continually reminding ourselves to treat our loved ones at least as well as we treat everybody else. Your second "be" can have multiple applications, but I immediately thought of the day decades ago when I became enraged behind the wheel of my vehicle over a driver who pulled in front of me and blocked my escape from creeping traffic. A still, small voice in my mind spoke and said, "You teach your Bible class that God is in control, and if you really believe that, you know that I moved that car to block you, so you are actually angry at Me." I have never been more broken than at that moment, and as tears streamed down my face I asked God to help me live out what I believe so that people can see that it is true. That moment revolutionized my life, as I entered a new dimension of peace and tranquility. I know there are just as many stupid drivers out there as before, but now I defer to them as though they are making understandable and forgivable mistakes or errors in judgment. In the interest of full disclosure, I must admit that sometimes I am the unintentional offender, and when possible I mouth "I'm sorry," hoping he/she can read my lips and forgive me. God bless you, little Portillo, and give you a productive and satisfying 2018.

    P.... ....

    I guess what most it of comes down to is...patience. And don't forget to breath : )

    P.... ....

    No matter who no matter what...I care about everybody.

  58. V.... ....

    Thanks for sharing. Amazing song with a great meaning.

  59. J.... F....

    Beautiful. Be Thou My Vision sung by her is unbelievable

  60. P.... ....

    This song always bring to confess my sins and ask forgiveness.

  61. A.... ....

    Alison has a way of leaving me hanging off some cliff,
    and then bringing me up again. At times she seems to run out of breath,
    then she belts out the truth... again.

    Life seems to imitate her art.

    When I see the humble angel pleading my case.
    ...with whispers of true spirit, see light in her eyes.
    She drives me to let go of my efforts ...and just be.

  62. A.... R....

    "As for me and my house we shall serve the Lord."

  63. B.... B....

    This lady has a beautiful voice and great band

    a beautiful singer just love her thanks for sharing it and for the sentiments ex pressed by you

  78. M.... M....

    This is a simple yet tremendous song. There were some poignant moments in the song, and I can relate to a lot - " But I keep on getting caught up, in this world I'm living in, & your voice it sometimes fades before I know" This one phrase probably sums up many of us. I know, I am one, & at many times, needs to be pulled back to reality and listen to his guidance & reassurance that he'll always be there to catch us when, not if we fall.
    I just have to learn to pause long enough to listen. But fear not, that's what makes us human, and the good news is, Jesus knows that, & he is always less than a whisper or thought away. - Sid you do incredible work for God's Glory, on your page!!

    Thank you for the encouragement. Dottie Rambo's husband said that once he was really struggling, and in his prayer closet he said, "God! Why are you doing this to me?" The answer immediately came into his heart: "It's the only way I can get you into this prayer closet." Unfortunately, that's a routine all true Christians experience.

  79. b.... ....

    The Voice of an Angel !!!

  80. s.... ....

    Right on, Sid! I saw them perform this as an encore at the end of a concert at the Greek theater in Berkeley.

    steve95838
    That's great! They could not have made a better last impression for fans going back to their daily lives.

  81. T.... M....

    Heartbreakingly beautiful search for solace in ones faith... Full of humble pathos and sincerity.

    Very moving.

  82. C.... S....

    God blessed us with the rain we've been praying for - bless His holy Name!!!

  83. C.... W....

    Amen ❤

  84. C.... S....

    Thank you so much for putting up such an important song. I live in and love Montana and it is on fire. I see many of my Christian brothers and sisters fretting and worrying about that and while I know we need to be in prayer about it, we also need to keep praising our LORD because He has got this. Same with Hurricane Harvey though it is a far graver situation for so many people. Pray and give it all to God and continue to praise His Holy Name!! This song is a good example of how Christians can move forward in a scary situation. LORD we believe; but help our unbelief!!

  85. N.... H....

    "God so loved the world..." We are not sinless, we are forgiven. Thank you Lord... Great song, wonderful artist, and thank you Sid for stopping the madness, so we can share together and enjoy the beauty of these lyrics and this artist in peace.

    N.... H....

    NC Heart , I am grateful for being able. Thank you.

  86. J.... ....

    Ron Block writes from his soul ... I suspect this was the public debut of this song. Did you notice the little smile from Dan Taminsky? He was saying silently to Ron, "Good song!"

  87. T.... ....

    I'm not a Christian and I will never be, but I DO respect the religion of others. I think a discussion isn't needed, if God is real or he isn't, let people believe what they want to believe. Respect the others.

    T.... ....

    TODSEL: Thank you! If Jesus wants you to believe in Him, He'll let you know personally. Okay?

  88. G.... P....

    I love this beautiful lady because she is so humble yet so talented, when she comes to South Africa hope to meet her- I think even my cats will like her - they like her voice already !!!

  89. G.... P....

    Thank U Sir - I don't call many people sir unless they truly deserve it - Alison is a super beautiful/talented lady & I wish her & Her family all good things - Bravo you are all super people ..

  90. J.... ....

    I want to trade places with either Jerry and Dan. Then I would be next to an angel.

    UPDATE: I had the night to think that over. I've already played rhythm guitar, albeit nowhere near as well as Dan - I taught myself, and there's always a limit to that kind of effort. What I want to do is play the dobro; so I want to trade places with Jerry. That way I get to stand next to an angel AND play the dobro.

  91. E.... G....

    There is a reason, God created Alison to help me deal with life and get through the hard times, her music soothes my soul. I thank God for Alison & Union Station.

    E.... G....

    Evan Gelist My thoughts as well.

  92. C.... ....

    Now I know why I love her music so much. Good songs, and here, a beautiful message...

  93. M.... C....

    God has carried me many times in my life, when I thought I couldn't take one more step. I've been to the point to even question "why".... but even in my doubt He loved me all the way through it. Great song!

    M.... C....

    Mary Campbell: Amen!
