God Sendeth Sun, He Sendeth Shower

Author: Mrs. Sarah F. Adams Hymnal: Northfield Hymnal No. 2 #138 (1916) Lyrics: 1 God sendeth sun, He sendeth shower; Alike they’re needful for the flower, And joys and tears alike are sent To give the soul fit nournishment: As comes to me or cloud or sun, Father, Thy will, not mine, be done. 2 Can loving children e’er reprove, With murmurs, those they trust and love? Creator! I would ever be A trusting, loving child to Thee: As comes to me or cloud or sun, Father, Thy will, not mine, be done. 3 O ne’er will I at life repine; Enough that Thou hast made it mine; When falls the shadow cold of death, I yet will sing with prating breath, As comes to me or cloud or sun, Father, Thy will, not mine, be done.

He sendeth sun, he sendeth shower

Author: Sarah F. Adams Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #119 (1873) Lyrics: 1 He sendeth sun, he sendeth shower; Alike they're needful for 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! 2 Can loving children e'er reprove With murmurs whom they trust and love? Creator, I would ever be A trusting, loving child to thee: As comes to me, or cloud, or sun, Father, thy will, not mine, be done! 3 Oh, ne'er will I at life repine! Enough that thou hast made it mine; When falls the shadow cold of death, I yet will sing, with parting breath, As comes to me, or shade, or sun, Father, thy will, not mind, be done!

Sarah Flower Adams

1805 - 1848 Person Name: Sarah F. Adams Author of "God sendeth sun, he sendeth show'r" in The School Hymnary Adams, Sarah, nee Flower. born at Harlow, Essex, Feb. 22nd, 1805; died in London, Aug. 14, 1848, and was buried at Harlow, Aug. 21,1848. She was the younger daughter of Mr. Benjamin Flower, editor and proprietor, of The Cambridge Intelligencer; and was married, in 1834, to William B. Adams, a civil engineer. In 1841 she published Vivia Perpetua, a dramatic poem dealing with the conflict of heathenism and Christianity, in which Vivia Perpetua suffered martyrdom; and in 1845, The Flock at the Fountain; a catechism and hymns for children. As a member of the congregation of the Rev. W. J. Fox, an Unitarian minister in London, she contributed 13 hymns to the Hymns and Anthems, published by C. Fox, Lond., in 1841, for use in his chapel. Of these hymns the most widely known are— "Nearer,my God,to Thee," and "He sendeth sun, He sendeth shower." The remaining eleven, most of which have come into common use, more especially in America, are:— Creator Spirit! Thou the first. Holy Spirit. Darkness shrouded Calvary. Good Friday. Gently fall the dews of eve. Evening. Go, and watch the Autumn leaves. Autumn. O hallowed memories of the past. Memories. O human heart! thou hast a song. Praise. O I would sing a song of praise. Praise. O Love! thou makest all things even. Love. Part in Peace! is day before us? Close of Service. Sing to the Lord! for His mercies are sure. Praise. The mourners came at break of day. Easter. Mrs. Adams also contributed to Novello's musical edition of Songs for the Months, n. d. Nearly all of the above hymns are found in the Unitarian collections of Great Britain, and America. In Martineau's Hymns of Praise & Prayer, 1873, No. 389, there is a rendering by her from Fenelon: —" Living or dying, Lord, I would be Thine." It appeared in the Hymns and Anthems, 1841. -John Julian, Dictionary of Hymnology (1907)

Anonymous

Person Name: Anon. Author of "He sendeth sun, he sendeth shower" in Hymn and Tune Book, for the Church and the Home In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
