Our Highest Joys Succeed Our Griefs
Author: Anonymous Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Our highest joys succeed our griefs,
And peace is born of pain;
Smiles follow bitter blinding tears,
As sunshine follows rain.
2. We gain our rest through weariness,
From bitter draw the sweet:
Strength comes from weakness, hope from fear,
And victory from defeat.
3. We reap where we have sown the seed;
Gain is the fruit of loss;
Life springs from death and, at the end,
The crown succeeds the cross. Used With Tune: PLYMOUTH Text Sources: The Methodist Hymnal (New York: The Methodist Book Concern, 1905), number 474

Author of "Our Highest Joys Succeed Our Griefs" in The Cyber Hymnal 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.
