| :: IT'S IN THE VALLEYS THAT I GROW :: Sometimes life seems hard to to bear, full of sorrow, trouble and woe. It's then I have to remember That it's in the valleys I grow. If I always stayed on the mountain top And never experienced pain, I would never appreciate God's Love. And would 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 understand Why things happens as they do, But I am 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 I'm feeling so very low. Just give me a gentle reminder That It's in the valley I grow. Continue to strengthen me, Lord And use my life each day To share your love with others And help them find their 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! |
