He sendeth sun, he sendeth shower,- Alike they're needful to the flower; And joys and tears alike are sent To give the soul fit nourishment. As comes to me or cloud or sun, Father! thy will, not mine, be done. (Sarah Fuller Flower Adams)

He sendeth sun, he sendeth shower,- Alike they're needful to the flower; And joys and tears alike are sent To give the soul fit nourishment. As comes to me or cloud or sun, Father! thy will, not mine, be done.
