A Valley
I went through a valley deeper more wider
Than I ever went through before
The problems kept coming, more higher and higher
My spirits were dashed to the floor
But my God sustained me and became my shelter
As the storms passed and calmness set in
I was renewed and refreshed by the Spirit
Ready now to live life again!
There's going to be bumps on your journey ahead
Some ruts that you think will not end
But hold on my brother for God's holding you
He's promised to always attend
When waves of discouragement hit you head-on
And seem to come end upon end
There still is One who is walking with you
It's Jesus our unfailing Friend
Lord help me to rest in that glorious thought
These things... these things soon shall pass
We shall be with you forever someday
Where joy that's eternal shall last
When that last valley the shadow of death
Comes to cast a gloom over me
I shall not fear for my Lord has conquered
And death has no captive in me!
