Rich Mullins - Could Be A Celebration lyrics

"Standin' on the border Hangin' on the edge Your life lies out before you On the road that runs ahead Sometimes what looks to be the worst Turns out to be the best But whatever comes down your way You'll be taking it step by step Could be a celebration Or it could be a hurt That makes your soul awaken In the echoes of what you heard 'Cause when your faith get shaken Sometimes your heart gets stirred Rolling with the punches You're down but you're not out Somehow I've got a hunch That you ain't throwin' in the towel You're not yet the winner But you're still in the fight And it's best you just remember Who it is that's on your side Could be a celebration Or it could be a hurt That makes your soul awaken In the echoes of what you heard 'Cause when your faith gets shaken Sometimes your heart gets stirred When it's time for quitting And when the day is done Ain't it nice to have some rhythm Ain't it nice to have some fun Drinking in that sweetness That's pulsing in the air Catch a scent of that fragrance Rising up on your prayer Could be a celebration Or it could be a hurt That makes your soul awaken In the echoes of what you heard 'Cause when your faith gets shaken Sometimes your heart gets stirred Could be a celebration Or it could be a hurt That makes your soul awaken In the echoes of what you heard 'Cause when your faith gets shaken Sometimes your heart gets stirred Be a celebration It could be a celebration And it could be a celebration"
