Celebration In Salvation

There is peace beyond measure 
There is joy beyond compare 
Joy I get from the one true Heir 
A life was given to me, but One had to die 
And I asked myself, why? 
Why would someone give me this gift?
Who could close that rift? 
I looked up and saw Him standing 
Ready to give me the gift of salvation 
Ready for a celebration! 
I could not live without this peace, without this joy
The Son of David rose from the grave! 
Even though I was depraved
Thank you, Jesus, for that gift
Only you could close that rift.
