Sometimes life seems hard to bear
Full of sorrow, trouble and woe
Its then I have to remember
That it’s in the valleys I grow

If I always stayed in the mountain top
And never experienced pain
I wud never appreciate gods love
And wud be living in vain

I have so much to learn
And my growth is slow
Sometimes I need the mountain tops
But it’s in the valleys I grow…..

I do not always understand
Why things happen as they do
But im very sure of one thing
My Lord will see me through

My little valleys are nothing
When I picture Christ on the cross
He went through the valley of death
His victory was Satan’s loss

Forgive me lord for complaining
When im feeling so very low
Just give me a gentle reminder
That it’s in the valleys I grow

Continue to strengthen me, Lord
And use my life each day
To share your love with others
And help them find heir way

Thank you for valleys, Lord
For this one thing I know
The mountain tops are glorious
But it’s in the valleys I grow…..
