William Cowper Quote

His purposes will ripen fast,
Unfolding every hour;
The bud may have a bitter taste,
But sweet will be the flower.

No. 35, "Light Shining out of Darkness". - Olney Hymns (1779)

His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding every hour; The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower.

His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding every hour; The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower.

His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding every hour; The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower.

His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding every hour; The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower.
