Burdens Can Be Blessings
Our Father knows what’s
best for us,
So why should we complain,
We always want the sunshine,
But He knows there must be rain.
We love the sound of laughter
And the merriment of cheer,
But our hearts would lose their tenderness
If we never shed a tear.
So whenever we are troubled
And life has lost its song,
It’s God testing us with
burdens
Just to make our spirit strong!
