64 Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and... not evil? Joв ii. 10.

1 GOD

(OD 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, 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.

H. J. E. HOLMES.

3 0 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 cloud or sun,
Father, Thy will, not mine, be done.
Mrs. Sarah F. Adams,
