Through the valley of the shadow I must go, Where the cold waves of Jordan roll; But the promise of my Shepherd I will know, Be the rod and the staff to my soul. Even now down the valley as I glide, I can hear my Savior say, ?Follow me!? And with Him I'm not afraid to cross the tide; There's a light in the valley for me. Refrain There's a light in the valley, There's a light in the valley, There's a light in the valley for me, And no evil will I fear while my Shepherd is so near, There's a light in the valley for me. Now the rolling of the billows I can hear, As they beat on the turf bound shore; But the beacon light of love so bright and clear, Guides my bark, frail and lone, safely over. I shall find down the valley no alarms, For my Savior's blessed smile I can see; He will bear me in His loving, mighty arms, There's a light in the valley for me. Refrain
