How Deep
Is This Valley?
by
Barbara Philbrook
How deep
is this valley Lord into which you have bid me to go,
the path is not easy to walk on and the reasons for this
journey are only for you to know.
I fear not
that I will succeed lord you would not have sent me if
the way were too tough,
and I need not know the why " that you sent me is
enough."
Forgive me
my shortcomings and help me to remember that your Spirit
in me does abide,
help me to always remember that where I am you are by my
side.
And when
doubt starts to come my way as I'm sure it will try to
do,
just give me a nudge in the right direction so I may
continue to serve you.
No matter
how deep the valley Lord I wish to continue on,
I'm as sure you have a purpose as I am that
following the night's darkness you will send a new dawn.
As I look
back over our journey Lord and the trials that you have
brought me through,
I wonder how I could even for a second hesitate to
go as you have directed me to.
Lord thank
you for loving me so much that you've revealed to
me the salvation plan,
and please help to be like the scripture saying
"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens
me." I know I can, I know I can, I know I can."
