The Valley
My treading through this dark valley has been limited.
I have tiptoed 'round its edges
And have sometimes seen
what the shadow of death
does to those who feel alone.
I have seen those trapped in the valley;
They have given up on all but themselves,
and some do not even have hope in that.
I know that everyone must one day pass through this dark place,
But I trust in My Shepard to lead me through.
For when I am in the darkest shadow,
His glory and His love
Will light my way
to the green pastures
and the still waters
that are waiting.
There will be a place with no more pain.
A place with only light and joy.
A place where the valley is only a memory.
