A lady at our church sang this song recently, and it really blessed my heart. I have certainly found it to be true. You can read the lyrics below and listen to it on The Chapelaires website here.

Even in the Valley

The Cousin Valley by Charles-Francois Daubigny

“High upon this mountain, the sun is shining bright
My heart is filled with gladness here above the cares of life
But I’ve just come through the valley of trouble, fear and pain
It was there I came to know my God enough to stand and say,

“Even in the valley, God is good
Even in the valley, He is faithful and true
He carries His children through, like He said He would
Even in the valley, God is good.”

“This road of life has led you through a valley of defeat,
You wonder if the Father has heard your desperate plea.
But there is hope in that rugged place
Where tears of sorrow dwell
Can’t you hear Him gently whispering
‘I am Here and all is well’”

“Even in the valley, God is good
Even in the valley, He is faithful and true
He carries His children through, like He said He would
Even in the valley, God is good.”

“Even in the valley, God is good
Even in the valley, He is faithful and true
He carries His children through, like He said He would
Even in the valley, God is good.”

Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer. ~Psalms 19:14
