That’s Why I’m Here lyrics
by Paul Baloche
[Verse 1]
I didn't come here to sing about the devil
I came to praise the name of the Lord
I'm here to tell ya once I was a rebel
I've been delivered by the power of His Word
[Chorus]
That's why I'm here
To lift up His Name
Tell the whole world
I'm the reason He came
That's why I'm here
To glorify Him
He's the only One
Who deserves my praise
Gonna live for Him
All the rest of my days
'Cause that's why I'm here
That's why I'm here
[Verse 2]
I didn't come here to talk about the weather
I came to hear about the blood of the Lamb
I wanna stand up and worship my Savior
Shout "Hallelujah" and say "Amen"
[Chorus]
'Cause that's why I'm here
To lift up His Name
Tell the whole world
I'm the reason He came
That's why I'm here
To glorify Him
He's the only One
Who deserves my praise
Gonna live for Him
All the rest of my days
'Cause that's why I'm here
That's why I'm here
[Bridge]
To sing worthy is the Lord
Who is my rock
Jesus the only Son of God
[Instrumental Break - feat. Electric Guitar & Hammond Organ]
[Chorus]
'Cause that's why I'm here
To lift up His Name
Tell the whole world
I'm the reason He came
That's why I'm here
To glorify Him
He's the only One
Who deserves my praise
Gonna live for Him
All the rest of my days
[Chorus]
'Cause that's why I'm here
To lift up His Name
Tell the whole world
I'm the reason He came
That's why I'm here
To glorify Him
He's the only One
Who deserves my praise
(He's the only One
Who deserves my praise)
I'm gonna live for Him
All the rest of my days
'Cause that's why I'm here
That's why I'm here
[Outro]
Gonna lift up His name, yeah
(That's why I'm here)
'Cause that's the reason I came
(That's why I'm here)
Don't know why you came tonight
But I came to praise my Lord
(That's why I'm here)
Holy shout, holy shout
Hallelujah
(That's why I'm here)
I came to lift up His name
Yeah
I came to praise Him
Mmm-hmmm
