Sometimes life seems hard to bearFull of sorrow, trouble and woe
It's then we have to rememberThat it's in the valley we grow.
If we always stayed on the mountain topAnd never experienced pain,
We would never appreciate God's loveAnd would be living in vain.
We have so much to learnAnd our growth is very slow,
Sometimes we need the mountain tops,But it's in the valley we grow.
We do not always understandWhy things happen as they do,
But I am very sure of one thingMy Lord will see me through.
The little valleys are nothingWhen we picture Christ on the cross
He went through the valley of deathHis victory was Satan's loss.
Forgive me Lord, for complainingWhen I'm feeling so very low.
Just give me a gentle reminderThat it's in the valleys I grow.
Continue to strengthen me, LordAnd use my life each day
To share your love with othersAnd help them find their way.
Thank you for the valleys, LordFor this one thing I know
The mountain tops are gloriousBut it's in the valleys I grow.
