Today’s song is by Sovereign Grace and is based on the Valley of Vision prayer by Arthur Bennett, found in the collection of Puritan prayers by the same name. The truths of this song are truths that eventually all of us as Christians will experience. And although it may be painful to live through, it’s necessary in order that we may become more and more like our Saviour, to the praise of God’s glory. Enjoy!
When You lead me to the valley of vision
I can see You in the heights
And though my humbling wouldn’t be my decision
It’s here Your glory shines so bright
So let me learn that the cross precedes the crown
To be low is to be high
That the valley’s where You make me more like Christ
Let me find Your grace in the valley
Let me find Your life in my death
Let me find Your joy in my sorrow
Your wealth in my need
That You’re near with every breath
In the valley
In the daytime there are stars in the heavens
But they only shine at night
And the deeper that I go into darkness
The more I see their radiant light
So let me learn that my losses are my gain
To be broken is to heal
That the valley’s where Your power is revealed
