Ah... don't let me grow bitter I pray
Give me strength to carry on my way

I'm leanin on you like a wooden cane
Well, I'm walkin through; I'm walkin through the valley of the pain

I'm believin there's a reason for this trial'
This too shall pass in a little while
Woh, Lord have mercy if I complain
I'm walkin through, I'm walkin through the valley of the pain
Yes, I'm walkin through, I'm walkin through the valley of the pain

Paint me in a river of my tears
Whisper hope and truth - courage in my ears

Well, when I'm hurtin I have a dangerous tongue
I lose it and use it like a gun
Oh wont you stop me if you see me takin aim
I'm walkin through, I'm walkin through the valley of the pain
If I'm walkin through, I'm walkin through the valley of the pain
Yes, I'm walkin through; I'm walkin through the valley of the pain

Paint me in a river of my tears
Whisper hope and truth - courage in my ears
Remind me when I reach the other side
I'll b thankful for every tear that I cries

Don't let the darkness drive me insane
I'm walkin through, I'm walkin through the valley of the pain
If I'm walkin through, I'm walkin through the valley of the pain
Yes, I'm walkin through; I'm walkin through the valley of the pain
