And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. (2 Corinthians 2:15, KJV)

Why Do We Do All the Things That We Do
Lyrics and music by Greg Wright, January, 2003

Why do we do all the things that we do?
Why do we say all the things that we say?
Are we living for, the glory of God,
Or do we live just to have our own way?

Chorus:
Christ must be the reason for our living.
Spend not your days on self and foolish pride.
He died for us that we in all our living,
Might live for Him, for Christ the crucified.

Why is it hard to completely forgive,
Anger and rage always burning inside?
Is our main concern, the honor of God,
Or is our focus our honor and pride?

Repeat Chorus:

Why be consumed by the things of this world,
Seeking to make us a name among men?
Let the name of Christ, be our heart's delight,
And let His worship and praise be our end.

Repeat Chorus:
