It Takes the Bitter and the Sweet

It Takes the Bitter and the Sweet

It takes the bitter and the sweet
To make a life full and complete ,
So when God sends
Some unwanted affection ,
Be assured that it comes
With His kind benediction ,
And if we accept it
As a gift of His love ,
We’ll be showered with blessings
From our Father above .
For his grace is sufficient ,
Whatever betide us ,
And it only takes faith
To keep Him beside us .
