The verse was written by the English poet and Unitarian hymn writer Sarah Flower Adams at her home "Sunnybank", in Loughton, Essex, England, in 1841.
It was first set to music by Adams's sister, the composer Eliza Flower, for William Johnson Fox's collection Hymns and Anthems (1845)
But in 1859 Sarah Flower Adams' lyrics were set to the tune of Bethany and published in Lowell Mason's "Sabbath Hymn and Tune Book". which subsequently became the most used tune.
