Lyrics
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
While I'm walkin' through
I'm walkin' through
The valley of pain
I'm believin' there's a reason for this trial
This too shall pass in a little while
Oh Lord have mercy if I complain
While I'm walkin' through,
I'm walkin' through
A valley of pain
While I'm walkin' through,
I'm walkin' through
A valley of pain
Won't you bathe me in a river of my tears
Whisper hope and truth and courage in my ears
When I'm hurting I have a dangerous tongue
I'll lose it and use it like a gun
Lord stop me if you see my takin' aim
Whike I'm walkin' through,
I'm walkin' through
A valley of pain
I'm walkin' through,
I'm walkin' through
A valley of pain
I'm walkin' through,
I'm walkin' through
A valley of pain
Bathe me in a river of my tears
Whisper hope and truth and courage in my ears
Remind me when I reach the other side
I'll be thankful for every tear I cried
Don't let me grow bitter I pray
Give me strength to carry on my way
Don't let the darkness drive me insane
While I'm walkin' through,
I'm walkin' through
A valley of pain
I'm walkin' through,
I'm walkin' through
A valley of pain
I'm walkin' through,
I'm walkin' through
This valley of pain
