A musician needs all the keys
To play a symphony;
If he only used the white ones,
What beauty would there be?
The black keys make the music
Melodic to the ear;
If the pianist never used them,
What a different song we'd hear.
And just like that piano,
So it is with life;
It takes both light and dark
To make the music flow just right.
God uses trials and sorrows
Like the pianist uses keys;
He combines the light and dark
To make life's music sound so sweet.
The song of life sounds better
When He uses all the keys;
For then He can turn a simple tune
Into a beautiful symphony.
