"Jesus, thank you for loving me and for dying on the cross to save me from my sins and from hell, forgive me of all my sins, I believe in you, I put my trust in you, and now Jesus I invite you and receive you in my heart as my personal Lord and Savior, Amen!"
IN 1983 DAVID CAME TO LETHBRIDE ALBERTA FOR A CONCERT MY wife and her sisters had a beautiful lunch with him we were 24 I'm now 65..Bless you David for Blessing our lives
Science cannot explain the existence of human beings. It is only through our Lord Jesus Christ why humanity exists with its mysterious equation of love
Absolutely. He could’ve gone a done opera. His professor in college wanted him to. But he knew where he wanted to go. And I’m grateful to God for that. Amen
A prayer requiring faith to receive THE GREATEST GIFT (LIFE) to your existence. On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE. YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors. 🥰 YOU SAW them as sinners because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive the grace by justification even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation. YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow. If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain. But the skin couldn’t cover THE SUFFERING YOUR ONE AND ONLY SON BORED on the cross as PAYMENT for all our sins because HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALONE HAD THE MERIT TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR HOLINESS. Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰 They have seen a lot of crazy things done in YOUR NAME. For example, the father of lies futile attempts to make crooked the right ways of the LORD to turn people away from faith in the WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE. How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them. Despite this conviction, YOU ARE MINDFUL of them as evidenced by the fact that YOUR JUDGEMENT is not speedy, allowing them to pursue the desires of the flesh. They are aware of hypocrisy in religious assemblies that like to be seen and heard. In addition, secular education teaches that there is no right and wrong, if GOD exists there is no way of relating to HIM, and moral standards shift according to the whims of fashion. Therefore, their minds are conditioned to question everything this world has to offer including “THY POWER THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE DISPLAYED.” They have accepted the heavy burden of dealing with the troubles of this life and seeks to know another way, YOU THE GREAT COMFORTER TO ALL who did receive YOU as their personal SAVIOR. Still, YOU have shown them NEW MERCY every day with each thought they make and each breath they take. Unfortunately, like the prodigal son, we are all guilty of wandering far from YOU LORD because the negative experiences of our lives tend to build roadblocks to the TRUTH. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them to identify the way, truth, and eternal life (that is YOU). Since to know and follow your SPIRIT is more exciting than any 007 movie, and YOU DELIGHT MAKING the ordinary into extraordinary. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST MAKE them understand that there is no way around YOUR TRUTH, and that there is something about YOUR NAME. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them defeat in their minds what is false in YOUR EYES. LORD GUIDE their thoughts to know that the path of sin is hard on their hearts for the purpose of crying out to YOU to know the joy, peace of having the heavy burden LIFTED by THE GOD OF PEACE I AM, and ANCHOR their souls in THE HAVEN OF REST. In other words, LORD use the storms in their lives to get a hold of them to trust YOU and believe. In truth, YOU ARE THE JOY that seekest them through pain. LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul. ONLY YOU can calm the trouble waters of the mind when one admits to wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, JESUS IS LORD, and believes in the heart that GOD RAISED HIM from the dead TO LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt away from the heart in accordance to YOUR WORD found in Psalm 51:1-10 KJV. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 O, the wonder of it all to experience within the flesh the feeling of a tree being cut back/pruned inorder for it to grow stronger and more beautiful after meditating on the words of said Psalm. 🥰🙌 LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰 LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces. LORD STRENGTHEN their determination to never waiver in efforts to search for YOU because the wages of sin is too high for anyone to pay. Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their doors until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌 If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee. Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again, I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh. O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
I've watched many professional vocal coaches about David's performances and all of them agree that he is one of the best male vocalists ever. It's always a joy to listen not only to David but to the Gaither's singers, vocalists and let's not forget Mark Lowry who has been a tremendous performer and his character and jokes have uplifted millions. God bless you all!
David Phelps, in my opinion, is the most talented singer I've ever heard. Of course, I have heard many singers. I am almost 86 years old, have always been in the church, played piano in church starting when I was around 10. I know talent when I see or hear it. David, thank you for using your talent for our God and working in a position that thousands can hear your great voice. We are fortunate to be able to hear you.
David Phelps....the Voice. Beautiful!! I never listen to David without doing one of three things or.....all three at the same time! Cry, smile or raise my hands to the Lord!

As little children We would dream of Christmas morn And all the gifts and toys We knew we'd find But we never realized A baby born one blessed night Gave us the greatest gift of our lives As the years went by We learned more about gifts The giving of ourselves And what that means On a dark and cloudy day A man hung crying in the rain All because of love, all because of love And We were the reason That He gave His life We were the reason That He suffered and died To a world that was lost He gave all He could give To show us the reason to live I've finally found the reason for living It's in giving every part of my heart to Him In all that I do every word that I say I'll be giving my all just for Him, for Him And We were the reason That He gave His life We were the reason That He suffered and died To a world that was lost He gave all He could give To show us the reason to live He is my reason to live

@@gershomtan5879 you have such a profound impact on David Phelps's career with your comment, love and support. A thank you text wouldn't fail to express our gratitude to you, we love you.David Phelps would want you to write him a personally thank you texts, My name is Jacqueline and I happened to be his personal communication manager.
Good evening. I am French and I have admired you for 15 years. Yor voice makes me have spiritual emotions. My first love is Jesus. I saw you in 2012 in London . Can I hope to hear you in Europe before I pass to the other side of the veil ? Because I have a neurodegenerative disease, and I am in wheelchair but my prayer is to be able to hear you sing again in Europe . Thank you for the beautiful soul that you are David Phelps 🙏🙏🙏
Well done, David Meece... I knew guys like David Phelps could take your song and reach new cultures of people with it. Let the LORD be praised appropriately!
Greetings in the name of Lord Jesus Christ, I really appreciate your love over my dad’s ministry, God will surprise you beyond your expectations. amen 🙏🙏
I have heard a lot of others sing this but No one has made me cry because it makes me know how much I owe the Lord. Only David’s magnificent voice could do this. God Bless you David Phelps and your music ministry. Truly God’s Anointed.
He needs to go on every talent show out there to show what the best of the best looks like. Like the voice, X factor, America’s got talent, etc. they have really talented people like Susan Boyle. But David Phelps, from what I’ve heard, probably has the best voice of our time. I would love to see the judges react to him sing.
Dak Kruller well that is not a bad idea I meant no disrespect but he's not as good as he used to be...I wish I had a time machine and travel back just to listen him sing...he's my favourite singer...too bad he's out of his prime now...
Me too.the first time I heard him singing i was mesmerized by his very strong,soothing and perfect voice and heartfelt rendetion of songs. How i wish i had the same voice like him.
Daniel Cosme Dimash is extremely talented and a great and interesting musician artist, but Phelps’ voice, support and resonance is godly, dimash cant compare
The strength, tone, control is still amazing. There is nobody who has ever kept their voice at this level until very nearly 50. When I first heard David I knew I had heard the greatest singer of all time, and being a musician I do not say it lightly. It is beyond human indeed - it's the glory of God.
Me too, over and over and over, I wish I could stay awake 24-7-365, to listen to David sing and praise God will his God given voice. Someday, neverending.Thank you Jesus for this magnificent Vocal Instrument.
Ya'll know that Jesus is coming on the clouds very soon. These songs of rapture that David has been singing for years are about to be fulfilled. Encourage eachother with these words- 1 Thessalonians 4, Hebrews 10:37-39, 1 John 2:18
His tone and voice range plus voice control makes David in a class of its own!! I believe he STILL trains a few hours each day.Only way you can do what he does. Same with Celine.
Greetings in the name of Lord Jesus Christ, I really appreciate your love over my dad’s ministry, God will surprise you beyond your expectations. amen 🙏🙏
This song, sung by David Meece back then, is part of my sweetest memories of life as a new believer in Jesus Christ! Beautiful song sung by my favorite tenor, David Phelps! Thank you for posting!

Be Blest David Phelps...as you are a blessing...the world needs that reason to live as so many see their life as hopeless...our reason to live gives us hope...give the reason to live...share the gospel...people need the Lord...they need hope in a hopeless world...only Jesus can give that...
I asked on David's website where we might get the sheet music for the piano and I haven't gotten a response yet. I probably won't be able to play it while I'm still on earth, but maybe by the time I get to Heaven I can ask to be able to play it! Beautiful
Have listened to this sooo many times.Will never get tired of this song, message, or Mr. Phelps voice. GOD Loves to hear his children praise him. What a voice.🙏

Someone once told me that Jesus would die for me if l was the only person that needed Him. That night in my bed l praying asked Jesus whom l didn’t know, if this person is right show me tonight; He at that very moment made His love so Amazing and l became His sheep forever following Him🙌🏻❤️Thank You Lord
Yes his voice is butter!!!! I can listen to him sing all day. I like how he likes singing wordy songs with such meaning and a spirit filled message. Thank you Lord for giving him a beautiful voice and me a listening ear. I would love to sing with him one day. 🙌🏽💕

David Phelps is one of my favorite Gaither singers. He has such a great voice and he sings with so much emotion and passion. God's light shines through him. P.S Your Piano Artist is wonderful. I love piano music.

Absolutely breathtaking. David is one of a kind! By the way, as amazing as his high stuff is (we all know how amazing it is), his quiet soft singing in in the mid-range/low-range is STUNNING. Truly no weak spots in his voice

A thank you text wouldn't fail to express our gratitude to you, we love you.David Phelps would want you to write him a personally thank you texts, My name is Jacqueline and I happened to be his personal communication manager.
As little children, we would dream of Christmas morn of all the gifts and toys we knew we"d find But we never realized a baby born one blessed night Gave us the greatest gift of our lives We were the reason that He gave his life We were the reason that He suffered and died To a world that was lost He gave all He could give To show us the reason to live As the years went by, we learnt more about gifts The giving of ourselves and what that means On a dark and cloudy day a man hung crying in the rain Because of love, because of love We were the reason that He gave his life We were the reason that He suffered and died To a world that was lost He gave all He could give To show us the reason to live I"ve finally found the reason for living It"s in giving every part of my heart to Him In all that I do, every word that I say I"ll be giving my all just for Him, for Him We were the reason that He gave his life We were the reason that He suffered and died To a world that was lost He gave all He could give To show us the reason to live He is my reason to live -

If someone is going to do a song that Sandy made so well known, it has to be David Phelps. Such power, such conviction, such a message. Beautifully done, and the musical styling in the middle just put a little icing on the cake.
I never get why my friends say that singing isnt fun Look at them, it looks like so much fun! The glory and redemption you feel while singing to him is the best
Hace alrededor de 15 Años en una visita a Montréal.. Unos hermanos me regalaron un DVD de vuestro grupo.. Regrese a mi país con un Tesoro.. No soy de habla Inglesa.. Sin embargo Dios a través de ustedes me Bendigo tanto.. Sentí como el Espíritu se movía dentro de mi ser.. Gracias miles por seguir usando vuestros dones de la Música y la maravillosas voces que ofrecen para primero alabar al Dios Rey pero a la vez regalarnos un ratico en este mundo tan convulso.. De un pedacito de ese lugar tan Especial que Dios tiene para nosotros sus hijos. Siempre que les escucho Dios me habla..... Gracias miles
I am SO GLAD I am not one of the generation of people that listen to the radio and like a song because they were told it was good. I am much happier to be able to listen to a real singer, like David Phelps. He doesn't need computers to tune his voice up, he can hit the right notes himself, and with power!
We are the reason .,.,.,.,., what great love our Lord has for us. He truly gave it ALL! What a BEAUTIFUL arrangement. Magnificent! This song delivers such a wonderful message. You can see the sincerity in everyone involved in this song. What a blessing! Thank you!
Wow my sister sent me this beautifully written song I love love love it!!! I have cold chills!!! I’m so happy I got to hear this song well done good and faithful servant
Greetings in the name of Lord Jesus Christ, I really appreciate your love over my dad’s ministry, God will surprise you beyond your expectations. amen 🙏🙏
I have watched this video at least 10 times and the Holy Spirit gives confirmation through tingles through my body each time. This is anointed by the Lord Jesus who IS our reason for living, but also our reason to die each day to ourselves and LIVE by the Holy Spirit's power and strength. Read your Bible and LIVE.
Walking by the Spirit Always Those tingles are called goose bumps, where are a nerve reaction we experience when we're emotionally joyful. Let's not dumb down the Holy Spirit, who is God, to an emotional feeling of tingles.
@@holpcs2 no they are not goosebumps. They are like the rivers of living waters or the fire of the Holy Spirit who I certainly don't dumb down since He gives me understanding of the Scriptures daily. John 10 the Lord Jesus speaks to His sheep and they follow His voice.
A prayer requiring faith to receive THE GREATEST GIFT (LIFE) to your existence. On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE. YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors. 🥰 YOU SAW them as sinners because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive the grace by justification even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation. YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow. If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain. But the skin couldn’t cover THE SUFFERING YOUR ONE AND ONLY SON BORED on the cross as PAYMENT for all our sins because HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALONE HAD THE MERIT TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR HOLINESS. Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰 They have seen a lot of crazy things done in YOUR NAME. For example, the father of lies futile attempts to make crooked the right ways of the LORD to turn people away from faith in the WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE. How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them. Despite this conviction, YOU ARE MINDFUL of them as evidenced by the fact that YOUR JUDGEMENT is not speedy, allowing them to pursue the desires of the flesh. They are aware of hypocrisy in religious assemblies that like to be seen and heard. In addition, secular education teaches that there is no right and wrong, if GOD exists there is no way of relating to HIM, and moral standards shift according to the whims of fashion. Therefore, their minds are conditioned to question everything this world has to offer including “THY POWER THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE DISPLAYED.” They have accepted the heavy burden of dealing with the troubles of this life and seeks to know another way, YOU THE GREAT COMFORTER TO ALL who did receive YOU as their personal SAVIOR. Still, YOU have shown them NEW MERCY every day with each thought they make and each breath they take. Unfortunately, like the prodigal son, we are all guilty of wandering far from YOU LORD because the negative experiences of our lives tend to build roadblocks to the TRUTH. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them to identify the way, truth, and eternal life (that is YOU). Since to know and follow your SPIRIT is more exciting than any 007 movie, and YOU DELIGHT MAKING the ordinary into extraordinary. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST MAKE them understand that there is no way around YOUR TRUTH, and that there is something about YOUR NAME. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them defeat in their minds what is false in YOUR EYES. LORD GUIDE their thoughts to know that the path of sin is hard on their hearts for the purpose of crying out to YOU to know the joy, peace of having the heavy burden LIFTED by THE GOD OF PEACE I AM, and ANCHOR their souls in THE HAVEN OF REST. In other words, LORD use the storms in their lives to get a hold of them to trust YOU and believe. In truth, YOU ARE THE JOY that seekest them through pain. LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul. ONLY YOU can calm the trouble waters of the mind when one admits to wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, JESUS IS LORD, and believes in the heart that GOD RAISED HIM from the dead TO LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt away from the heart in accordance to YOUR WORD found in Psalm 51:1-10 KJV. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 O, the wonder of it all to experience within the flesh the feeling of a tree being cut back/pruned inorder for it to grow stronger and more beautiful after meditating on the words of said Psalm. 🥰🙌 LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰 LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces. LORD STRENGTHEN their determination to never waiver in efforts to search for YOU because the wages of sin is too high for anyone to pay. Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their doors until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌 If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee. Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again, I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh. O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
It's just incredible. The dynamic... how to sing ...the presence of the Eternal God... the beauty of Christ in people's faces. David watching you sing we can imagine how it will be like in heaven. Glory God.
AMAZING song written by David Meece! Breath-taking vocal by David Phelps! Jesus IS our reason to live! Glory to Jesus Christ and what He has done for us! Amen!
No words can describe my joy and gratitud to you, David Phelps. To bring back the ONE Christmas song we all need to listen and Live for it, EVERY DAY. God bless you.
“Then crucify they cry” I could never sing this verse without crying, it just wrenched my heart. A truly beautiful hymn which I have not heard for many years. Thank you so much.
I have always have loved this song---every word is so true!!! Christ left His glory in heaven to come down to earth suffered and died and rose and is now sitting at the right hand of the Father---yes we were the reason---Praise everyday--Glory to Him!!! Awesome piano!!!! The Bible describes us as "dust", "sheep" and "His most treasured possession." Quite a range!!!! LOVE!!!!!
Greetings in the name of Lord Jesus Christ, I really appreciate your love over my dad’s ministry, God will surprise you beyond your expectations. amen 🙏🙏
Never a question about the power if a Christian singing for Christ.
"Jesus, thank you for loving me and for dying on the cross to save me from my sins and from hell, forgive me of all my sins, I believe in you, I put my trust in you, and now Jesus I invite you and receive you in my heart as my personal Lord and Savior, Amen!"
Amen may god bless you brother
Amen!
An asian guy completely non-religious, in awe of David's talent, that vocal run, oh yeah.
Yes
He’s got to be the best tenor on God’s earth. Awesome voice!
IN 1983 DAVID CAME TO LETHBRIDE ALBERTA FOR A CONCERT MY wife and her sisters had a beautiful lunch with him we were 24 I'm now 65..Bless you David for Blessing our lives
Science cannot explain the existence of human beings. It is only through our Lord Jesus Christ why humanity exists with its mysterious equation of love
A voice only God could create, knowing that this voice would be used to praise God, His Son and the Holy Spirit.
One reason David is so fantastic is you just know his heart is pure, and he is singing to The Lord with all the love inside of him!
Amen
Yes!
Absolutely. He could’ve gone a done opera. His professor in college wanted him to. But he knew where he wanted to go. And I’m grateful to God for that. Amen
This is one of my all-time faves! I agree that he's a fabulous, gifted singer, yet I prefer the original by David Meece.
@@RotcivVanDahl Amen
Jesus is the only reason I live n there's no other reason.

I've watched many professional vocal coaches about David's performances and all of them agree that he is one of the best male vocalists ever. It's always a joy to listen not only to David but to the Gaither's singers, vocalists and let's not forget Mark Lowry who has been a tremendous performer and his character and jokes have uplifted millions. God bless you all!
David Phelps, in my opinion, is the most talented singer I've ever heard. Of course, I have heard many singers. I am almost 86 years old, have always been in the church, played piano in church starting when I was around 10. I know talent when I see or hear it. David, thank you for using your talent for our God and working in a position that thousands can hear your great voice. We are fortunate to be able to hear you.
Hi ,how are you,i hope your doing good?
David Phelps....the Voice. Beautiful!! I never listen to David without doing one of three things or.....all three at the same time! Cry, smile or raise my hands to the Lord!
Agree with you, Kim. I just did all three right now.
Amen. Me too.
Well said!
Thanks for sharing. Now comes a prayer requiring faith to receive THE GREATEST GIFT (LIFE) to your existence using caps as emphasis to show the honest reverence for GOD'S SOVEREIGNTY.
On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE.
YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors, their families and friends. 🥰
YOU SAW them as sinners (missing the mark when aiming to solve a problem then creating another resulting in their weaknesses prevailing causing guilt of wrong doing) because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive the grace by justification even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation. YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow.
If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain. But the skin couldn’t cover THE SUFFERING YOUR ONE AND ONLY SON BORED on the cross as PAYMENT for all our sins because HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALONE HAD THE MERIT TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR HOLINESS. Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰

How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them.

LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul.

LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰
LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces.

The Best Gospel Singer ever. PRAISE JESUS.
As little children
We would dream of Christmas morn
And all the gifts and toys
We knew we'd find
But we never realized
A baby born one blessed night
Gave us the greatest gift of our lives
As the years went by
We learned more about gifts
The giving of ourselves
And what that means
On a dark and cloudy day
A man hung crying in the rain
All because of love, all because of love
And We were the reason
That He gave His life
We were the reason
That He suffered and died
To a world that was lost
He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live
I've finally found the reason for living
It's in giving every part of my heart to Him
In all that I do every word that I say
I'll be giving my all just for Him, for Him
And We were the reason
That He gave His life
We were the reason
That He suffered and died
To a world that was lost
He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live
He is my reason to live
Wow so amazing..whar a beautiful sing..thank sir david..you give justice to this song.. one of my fav christmas song..Amen..
A prayer requiring faith to receive THE GREATEST GIFT (LIFE) to your existence.
On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE.
YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors. 🥰
YOU SAW them as sinners because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive the grace by justification even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation. YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow.
If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain. But the skin couldn’t cover THE SUFFERING YOUR ONE AND ONLY SON BORED on the cross as PAYMENT for all our sins because HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALONE HAD THE MERIT TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR HOLINESS. Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰
They have seen a lot of crazy things done in YOUR NAME. For example, the father of lies futile attempts to make crooked the right ways of the LORD to turn people away from faith in the WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE. How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them. Despite this conviction, YOU ARE MINDFUL of them as evidenced by the fact that YOUR JUDGEMENT is not speedy, allowing them to pursue the desires of the flesh.
They are aware of hypocrisy in religious assemblies that like to be seen and heard. In addition, secular education teaches that there is no right and wrong, if GOD exists there is no way of relating to HIM, and moral standards shift according to the whims of fashion. Therefore, their minds are conditioned to question everything this world has to offer including “THY POWER THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE DISPLAYED.” They have accepted the heavy burden of dealing with the troubles of this life and seeks to know another way, YOU THE GREAT COMFORTER TO ALL who did receive YOU as their personal SAVIOR. Still, YOU have shown them NEW MERCY every day with each thought they make and each breath they take.
Unfortunately, like the prodigal son, we are all guilty of wandering far from YOU LORD because the negative experiences of our lives tend to build roadblocks to the TRUTH. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them to identify the way, truth, and eternal life (that is YOU). Since to know and follow your SPIRIT is more exciting than any 007 movie, and YOU DELIGHT MAKING the ordinary into extraordinary. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST MAKE them understand that there is no way around YOUR TRUTH, and that there is something about YOUR NAME. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them defeat in their minds what is false in YOUR EYES.
LORD GUIDE their thoughts to know that the path of sin is hard on their hearts for the purpose of crying out to YOU to know the joy, peace of having the heavy burden LIFTED by THE GOD OF PEACE I AM, and ANCHOR their souls in THE HAVEN OF REST. In other words, LORD use the storms in their lives to get a hold of them to trust YOU and believe. In truth, YOU ARE THE JOY that seekest them through pain.
LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul. ONLY YOU can calm the trouble waters of the mind when one admits to wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, JESUS IS LORD, and believes in the heart that GOD RAISED HIM from the dead TO LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt away from the heart in accordance to YOUR WORD found in Psalm 51:1-10 KJV. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 O, the wonder of it all to experience within the flesh the feeling of a tree being cut back/pruned inorder for it to grow stronger and more beautiful after meditating on the words of said Psalm. 🥰🙌
LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰
LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces. LORD STRENGTHEN their determination to never waiver in efforts to search for YOU because the wages of sin is too high for anyone to pay. Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their doors until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌
If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee.
Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again, I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh.
O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
Tanks you .
Congrats to the composer of this unending spiritual song.
Are we sure that Christ was crucified in the rain (or does that line just sound good?).
Man, has David got some "pipes" or what! And his ministry for the Lord is terrific.
David Phelps has unlimited vocal range. He is my favorite singer
Mine too. Dying to see him in concert.
THE. VOICE
True and he's praising the Lord. Wow. I'm still listening to this song
He makes me want to try harder at being the best Christian I can be.
MylesC1234 it’s not about trying Brother, it’s surrendering completely. Letting Christ live through you in every way. It’s a battle, but I’ll be praying for you. Blessings from Singapore
@@gershomtan5879 you have such a profound impact on David Phelps's career with your comment, love and support. A thank you text wouldn't fail to express our gratitude to you, we love you.David Phelps would want you to write him a personally thank you texts, My name is Jacqueline and I happened to be his personal communication manager.
We are the reason JESUS sacrificed on the cross.... GOD is good all the time..
Good evening. I am French and I have admired you for 15 years. Yor voice makes me have spiritual emotions. My first love is Jesus. I saw you in 2012 in London . Can I hope to hear you in Europe before I pass to the other side of the veil ? Because I have a neurodegenerative disease, and I am in wheelchair but my prayer is to be able to hear you sing again in Europe . Thank you for the beautiful soul that you are David Phelps 🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for your continuous love and support Lisa 🤗
This isn't an easy song to sing. Leave it to David to take it to a different level
This video needs a LOVE button!!!!!! Awesome!! JESUS is my reason to live!
Who listen 2024❤❤😊
Me 😊
👌🏻😁

나 2024년에 이걸 듣는다
Ik I did and it was awesome
Well done, David Meece... I knew guys like David Phelps could take your song and reach new cultures of people with it. Let the LORD be praised appropriately!
Greetings in the name of Lord Jesus Christ, I really appreciate your love over my dad’s ministry, God will surprise you beyond your expectations. amen 🙏🙏
I remember when David released this song .... I was in college..... (I guess I'm an old guy now?)...................
I have heard a lot of others sing this but No one has made me cry because it makes me know how much I owe the Lord. Only David’s magnificent voice could do this. God Bless you David Phelps and your music ministry. Truly God’s Anointed.
David Meece (the writer) does a great job on this.
@@dougretter I remember when David released this................. it was so good.
Remember the commandment Jesus gave to his disciples on the last supper,that we should love each other as he has loved us
Thanks christ
Beautiful voice. Indeed He is our reason to live.
Since 2020 i am listening to this vesrion, who still do the same now 2024? -From Philippines😍😘🙋♂️
Yeah me too 😊
He needs to go on every talent show out there to show what the best of the best looks like. Like the voice, X factor, America’s got talent, etc. they have really talented people like Susan Boyle. But David Phelps, from what I’ve heard, probably has the best voice of our time. I would love to see the judges react to him sing.
Dak Kruller well that is not a bad idea I meant no disrespect but he's not as good as he used to be...I wish I had a time machine and travel back just to listen him sing...he's my favourite singer...too bad he's out of his prime now...
Thank you beloved Lord Jesus for Giving me life through that Cross of Calvary and for loving me anconditionaly ❤
Yes..now Jesus is my reason to live
David Phelps is my favorite Christian singer. His voice is amazingly beautiful...so glad he uses his gifted voice for our Lord.
Hi ,how are you,i hope your doing good?
Me too.the first time I heard him singing i was mesmerized by his very strong,soothing and perfect voice and heartfelt rendetion of songs. How i wish i had the same voice like him.
A signature song of David Meece, interpreted by David Phelps. Simply fantastic!
He`s still one of the best singers world wide
i agree!!
The best! period!!!
@Daniel Cosme David Phelps voice is much more pleasant to the ears.
Daniel Cosme Dimash is extremely talented and a great and interesting musician artist, but Phelps’ voice, support and resonance is godly, dimash cant compare
@@goodoldtom agreed. Dimash is so overrated
The strength, tone, control is still amazing. There is nobody who has ever kept their voice at this level until very nearly 50. When I first heard David I knew I had heard the greatest singer of all time, and being a musician I do not say it lightly. It is beyond human indeed - it's the glory of God.
Me too, over and over and over, I wish I could stay awake 24-7-365, to listen to David sing and praise God will his God given voice. Someday, neverending.Thank you Jesus for this magnificent Vocal Instrument.
David Phelps it s one angel from God to we...... what a voice.... BRAZIL LOVES YOU DAVID!
I AGREE WITH YOU!
Ya'll know that Jesus is coming on the clouds very soon. These songs of rapture that David has been singing for years are about to be fulfilled. Encourage eachother with these words- 1 Thessalonians 4, Hebrews 10:37-39, 1 John 2:18
His tone and voice range plus voice control makes David in a class of its own!! I believe he STILL trains a few hours each day.Only way you can do what he does. Same with Celine.
Hello,how are you doing?
Greetings in the name of Lord Jesus Christ, I really appreciate your love over my dad’s ministry, God will surprise you beyond your expectations. amen 🙏🙏
This song, sung by David Meece back then, is part of my sweetest memories of life as a new believer in Jesus Christ! Beautiful song sung by my favorite tenor, David Phelps! Thank you for posting!

Be Blest David Phelps...as you are a blessing...the world needs that reason to live as so many see their life as hopeless...our reason to live gives us hope...give the reason to live...share the gospel...people need the Lord...they need hope in a hopeless world...only Jesus can give that...
That piano. Wow!
Incredible modulation, wasn't it?
So beautiful!
I asked on David's website where we might get the sheet music for the piano and I haven't gotten a response yet. I probably won't be able to play it while I'm still on earth, but maybe by the time I get to Heaven I can ask to be able to play it! Beautiful
Agreed, that piano player was out of this world!
@@yeshuabride-sherry3025 My thought, too! I'd love this sheet music :)
Have listened to this sooo
many times.Will never get tired of this song, message, or Mr. Phelps voice. GOD Loves to hear his children praise him. What a voice.🙏
God certainly gave David Neece a gift; he writes wonderful music with a heart-touching message.
Me too!🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Yes! we are the reason. That He gave His life. Thanks Jesus Christ.
Thank thank you LORD for what you have done in my Life this day ever LOVING FATHER I LIVE IN THIS EARTH TO ALWAYS WORSHIP YOU IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH
Hi ! from France ! Best tenor ever for me

He just had this angelic voice. So calming and so honoring to God.
Greetings in the name of Lord Jesus Christ, I really appreciate your love over my dad’s ministry, God will surprise you beyond your expectations. amen 🙏🙏
He amazes me. Truly one of the best vocalists I've ever heard.

David Phelps is my absolute favorite singer in the whole world. My biggest dream is to sing with him one day.
I love this version......and I am going to share with my friends..... BEAUTIFUL
David sings this with such love! LOVE is from God for God IS LOVE
Hello,how are you doing?
Someone once told

Hi ,how are you,i hope your doing good?

I'm so proud of you, Lord.
Absolutely breathtaking. David is one of a kind! By the way, as amazing as his high stuff is (we all know how amazing it is), his quiet soft singing in in the mid-range/low-range is STUNNING. Truly no weak spots in his voice
We got to meet and hear David Phelps live in concert last year, and it was an outstanding concert! What a VOICE and What a TALENT he has!

As little children,
we would dream of Christmas morn
of all the gifts and toys
we knew we"d find
But we never realized
a baby born one blessed night
Gave us the greatest gift of our lives
We were the reason
that He gave his life
We were the reason
that He suffered and died
To a world that was lost
He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live
As the years went by,
we learnt more about gifts
The giving of ourselves
and what that means
On a dark and cloudy day
a man hung crying in the rain
Because of love, because of love
We were the reason
that He gave his life
We were the reason
that He suffered and died
To a world that was lost
He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live
I"ve finally found the reason for living
It"s in giving every part of my heart to Him
In all that I do, every word that I say
I"ll be giving my all just for Him, for Him
We were the reason
that He gave his life
We were the reason
that He suffered and died
To a world that was lost
He gave all He could give
To show us the reason to live
He is my reason to live -
Jesus is my reason to live...
Beautifully done! All praise to our Creator!!
2024. Nothing will ever compare to this.
David is One of the Best. We have seen him Live several times, I get goose bums every time.
Same here. Seen him 11 times in concert and am blown away every time

If someone is going to do a song that Sandy made so well known, it has to be David Phelps. Such power, such conviction, such a message. Beautifully done, and the musical styling in the middle just put a little icing on the cake.
one of my favorite songs that David sang. Beautifully arranged and felt that we were there sang together with the audiences. Praise the Lord!!
Hi ,how are you,i hope your doing good?
I never get why my friends say that singing isnt fun
Look at them, it looks like so much fun!
The glory and redemption you feel while singing to him is the best
"When He gave his life for us, he suffered and die"
David you are A gift, and A inspiring man of God, your singing is A blessing for the soul!!!

Oh! Praise The Lord for such a dedication of David to share his talent with so many! May God always be glorified in our Brotherś life.
What a voice. What a talent. What a wonderful gift. Thank you, dear Lord. Thank you, David, for using what you’ve been given for the Lord.
Too cool. David Phelps singing a song by David Meece! This makes me happy. Was that piano solo a nod to Meece? Who is a classically trained pianist.
Hace alrededor de 15 Años en una visita a Montréal.. Unos hermanos me regalaron un DVD de vuestro grupo.. Regrese a mi país con un Tesoro.. No soy de habla Inglesa.. Sin embargo Dios a través de ustedes me Bendigo tanto.. Sentí como el Espíritu se movía dentro de mi ser.. Gracias miles por seguir usando vuestros dones de la Música y la maravillosas voces que ofrecen para primero alabar al Dios Rey pero a la vez regalarnos un ratico en este mundo tan convulso.. De un pedacito de ese lugar tan Especial que Dios tiene para nosotros sus hijos. Siempre que les escucho Dios me habla..... Gracias miles
I am SO GLAD I am not one of the generation of people that listen to the radio and like a song because they were told it was good.
I am much happier to be able to listen to a real singer, like David Phelps.
He doesn't need computers to tune his voice up, he can hit the right notes himself, and with power!
We are the reason .,.,.,.,., what great love our Lord has for us. He truly gave it ALL! What a BEAUTIFUL arrangement. Magnificent! This song delivers such a wonderful message. You can see the sincerity in everyone involved in this song. What a blessing! Thank you!
Hello,how are you doing?
Wow my sister sent me this beautifully written song I love love love it!!! I have cold chills!!! I’m so happy I got to hear this song well done good and faithful servant
Greetings in the name of Lord Jesus Christ, I really appreciate your love over my dad’s ministry, God will surprise you beyond your expectations. amen 🙏🙏
I have watched this video at least 10 times and the Holy Spirit gives confirmation through tingles through my body each time. This is anointed by the Lord Jesus who IS our reason for living, but also our reason to die each day to ourselves and LIVE by the Holy Spirit's power and strength. Read your Bible and LIVE.
Walking by the Spirit Always Those tingles are called goose bumps, where are a nerve reaction we experience when we're emotionally joyful. Let's not dumb down the Holy Spirit, who is God, to an emotional feeling of tingles.
@@holpcs2 no they are not goosebumps. They are like the rivers of living waters or the fire of the Holy Spirit who I certainly don't dumb down since He gives me understanding of the Scriptures daily. John 10 the Lord Jesus speaks to His sheep and they follow His voice.

Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
David does this song the absolute best! This song also brings tears, so powerful 😭🔥
Does he do better than the actual writer of the song in 1980?
To know we are the reason Jesus gave his life, that we may live, in gratitude I want to live for Him giving Him the glory.
It's just incredible. The dynamic... how to sing ...the presence of the Eternal God... the beauty of Christ in people's faces. David watching you sing we can imagine how it will be like in heaven. Glory God.
AMAZING song written by David Meece! Breath-taking vocal by David Phelps! Jesus IS our reason to live! Glory to Jesus Christ and what He has done for us! Amen!
No words can describe my joy and gratitud to you, David Phelps. To bring back the ONE Christmas song we all need to listen and Live for it, EVERY DAY. God bless you.
