I have been thru the valley of weeping,
Thru the valley of sorrow and pain;
But the God of all comfort was with me,
B His hand to uphold and sustain.
Refrain:
So I'll follow wherever God leads me,
In the darkness his Word lights my way;
I have proof that the Lord can give comfort,
And His grace can give strength for each day.
As the earth needs the clouds and the sunshine,
Sot the soul needs both sorrow and joy;
And when God puts His gold in the furnace,
He intends all its dross to destroy.
As we travel thru life's shadowed valley,}
The fresh springs of His love ever rise;
And we learn that our sorrows and losses
Are all blessings God sent in disguise.
