Life Is A Celebration
by Barbara Philbrook

Life is a celebration of God's love that caused us to be,
it was out of His great love God created you and me.

It does not matter of just what your life may consist,
whether it is agonizing or truly full of bliss.

Life is a celebration someone cared enough to create us you see,
with out His great love we would never be.

Sadness, fear, loneliness or a life simply divine,
it does not matter we are here only for a short time.

Then this life is over and on to eternity we are taken,
no one who calls out to God is in any way forsaken.

Seek diligently and you will find a comforter to guide your way,
God's love is so great He provided even for our short stay.

The price of sin is death. Jesus paid it all,
and everyone is heard who bothers on Him to call.

Life here is just an instant in the great by and by,
soon it will be over, we'll be gone in the twinkling of an eye.

Life is a celebration of all that God would do,
so that He could spend eternity with the likes of me and you.

Let's vow to celebrate from this moment on,
lets be the kind of Christians God can depend upon.

Let us celebrate with honor, joy and praise,
giving God the glory for the rest of our days.

No more dragging about bemoaning our trials,
no more petty complaints no more foolish denials.

From now on life's a celebration. Llet us go about jubilantly,
inviting all we meet to join us for eternity.
