From this morning's sermon - 
And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, 
and not unto men; - Colossians 3:23 

Every Day Is A Celebration
by Michael Romani

Every day is a celebration
One I live with fascination
Standing on promises made
Promises kept never fade

Singing out in His praise
Living His love in all my days
Life begun in Christ is eternal
Other choices are a bit infernal

From his Mother Mary's womb
Unto the days of an empty tomb
The birth of His church was born
To bring hope to the lost and forlorn

Throughout the world, in all of it's parts
This gospel message speaks to all hearts
Salvations stems from the Cross at Calvary 
In all of its resurrection of Holy Divinity

Worship lived well is a centered lifestyle
One filled with affirmation and not denial
This then is how we are meant to live this
Filled with His love and knowing forgiveness

Our God is a the right sort of loving father
Meaning the best for every son and daughter
And we as His children need to return this love
Here on Earth worship as it will always be above

He is the shepherd and we are His chosen flock
Standing on the promises as steadfast as a rock
In remembrance and focus we make our choices
Be it dwelling on the bad or praising in our voices

Searching eyes looking up into the heavenly skies
One set sees only stars; the other sees with true eyes
The evidence is there to be seen and does abound
In all the things and people and all that does surround

It only takes a believer's heart to see it and affirm
The truth of life that our every senses do confirm
There in this world in all we do we show our choices
In all the quiet agreement on which we give our voices

Either way, it is with our amen that we tell our story
Do we join in the darkness or do we speak of Glory
As for me and my home we will always choose to serve
This is our very solemn vow from which we will not swerve

In this celebratory life we choose our solid agreements
There is no way around this or even simple deferments
So walk carefully in all the things your life serves to affirm
And walk steadfast in all ways at all times serving to confirm

God, the Father is the truth, the light and the very source
Then we have our part to be lived as we act in our course
In saying this I urge that we forgive and love one another
Celebrating a righteous life of love for each sister and brother
