this valley

when i got home from denver a friend of mine told me that there was a song she wanted me to listen to. she said that she felt it would really minister to me with everything that i was going through. she couldn't have been more right. this song describes my heart for the last few months. that's one of the things i love about music... a song can just reach in and pull at your heart because it encaptures everything you're feeling at that moment. i'll post some of the lyrics here so you can get a little glimpse into my heart.


just when i thought this valley couldn't get any deeper
just when i thought i was stepping out of it
just when i thought the mountain was in my view
that's when i saw you

you didn't take me out of it but you joined me in it
you didn't lift me out of it but you lifted me up in it
you didn't pull me out of it but you pulled me towards you and its then i know
i'll be ok

jesus where would i be without your sovereignty
jesus where would i be without your sovereignty

just when i thought this mountain couldn't get any steeper
just when i thought i was falling off of it
just when i thought that valley was in my view again
that's when i saw you

you didn't take me out of it but you joined me in it
you didn't lift me out of it but you lifted me up in it
you didn't pull me out of it but you pulled me towards you and its then i know
i'll be ok

jesus where would i be without your sovereignty
jesus where would i be without your sovereignty

thank you for this valley
in it i will praise you
