Song Lyrics

“A HAPPY CELEBRATION” !

I want “My Life” to be “A Happy Celebration”!!,
One that points to Jesus Christ and shows the way,
So that “My Death” will be a “Happy Celebration”!!,
When I know I’ll see you all again someday.

Chorus:
I want “My Death” to be “A Happy Celebration”!!,
For at that moment life for me will just begin.
I want “My Death” to be “A Happy Celebration”!!,
For someday over yonder we’ll meet again.

I want “My Life” to be “A Happy Celebration”!!,
One that shows that Jesus Christ now Lives in me.
So that “My Death” will be “A Happy Celebration”!!,
For you’ll know from this Old World I am set free.

Chorus:

Now if your life’s “A Happy Celebration”!!,
Because this “Old Goat” has finally passed away.
Then your death might not be “A Happy Celebration”!!
Unless you get right with Jesus before “Judgment Day”

Chorus:

If you want your life to be “A Happy Celebration”!!
And you want “Sweet Peace” that only God can send.
So that your death will be “A Happy Celebration”!!
When folks gather round your casket at life’s end.

There’s just one way to make it “A Happy Celebration”!!
That is having Jesus Christ, Living within.
Then your death will be “A Happy Celebration”!!
When you find yourself forever free from sin.

Chorus:
