I've walked through the valley of sorrow and despair,
wondering at times if anyone else cared.

With my heart heavy laden wondering can I go on,
as God's word opened before me like a new dawn.

My eyes now seeing the promises there for me,
and that Jesus has died to set me free.

I grabbed hold of each new revelation I was being shown,
never before such hope had I  ever known.

But that old devil was right on the ball,
knowing if I saw the light I'd ignore his call.

He came at me with everything he had,
and I was growing weary of feeling so sad.

But then I heard the still quiet voice in the night,
"trust in me child I'll make it alright".

I'm hanging on Father I'm trusting in You,
and I can't wait to see all of the great things you are going to do.

I've been in this valley for such a long time,
but soon I'll reach the peak and see Your glory shine.

Nothing can beat me or get me down,
I refuse to be seen wearing a frown.

I am safe in Your loving hands I know,
and each trial I face just helps me to grow.

I've walked through the valley and scaled the mountain tall,
and I know You have been there through it all.

To Thee be the glory here and in Heaven above,
Thank You Father for Your abundant love.
