Down The Road Of Bittersweet
We had some good news and some bad news on a cold November morn
The test confirmed that we were parents, but there was something more
Our little boy had complications, and we were frightened as could be
But we decided to go walking down the road of bittersweet
The next nine months we grew together, somehow closer than before
And our faith began to blossom into something more
We would hold each other close and pray, then cry ourselves to sleep
We knew that God was walking with us down the road of bittersweet
Jesus, take my hand and walk beside meAnd make my footsteps firm beneath my feetI know You’ve gone this way before so guide
meI’m not alone as I go walking down the road of
bittersweet
The room was filled with apprehension on the day that he was born
But when I took him in my arms I knew there was so much moreThere was a bond of love between us, and I was never more
completeI never knew I’d find such blessing down the road of
bittersweet The doctor said we may not have much time before we’d have
to partSo I treasure every moment deep within my heart
Soon we’ll have a little angel, praying for our familyI’m just glad I got to meet him down the road of bittersweet
Jesus, take my hand and walk beside meAnd make my footsteps firm beneath my feet
I know You’ve gone this way before so guide meI’m not alone as I go walking down the roadI’m not alone as I go walking down the road
I’m not alone as I go walking down the road of bittersweet

…a silent prayer for the baby,
Austin John Swenby, and for unborn
babies everywhere
Angel of God, my guardian dear, to whom God’s love commits me here, ever this night be at my side, to light and
guard, to rule and guide.
Amen
FRIENDS ARE ANGELS WHO LIFT US TO OUR
FEET WHEN OUR WINGS HAVE
TROUBLE REMEMBERING HOW
TO FLY
