Because dark clouds have crossed the SKY
Shall the sun refuse to shinei
Because the morning has been wet
May evening not be filei
Sometimes the night has rayless been
Shall ars forget to glsteni
Although the winter has been drear,
To summer birds we listen.
My life has metimes rayless been,
Enshrouded sorry grief;
May never time assuaging hand
Bring softly sweet relief
Although my soul be overwhelmed
With buffett.ngs of sorrow.
Shall my weak heart ne'er stronger grow,
Or see a glad tomorrow
All, yes God showers the selfish soul
With sorrows bitter rain;
The purest heights are often reached
Through suffering AMI pain;
And deepest griefs in love were meant
TO purify and strengthen;
The souls that opens toward God
