Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

You never said it would be easy

You never said there?d be no pain

But You promised You?d go with me

And Your promises You always keep


Lord, I confess how much I need You

I confess that I am weak

I can?t promise I won?t fail You

But Your promises will not fail me


When I?m in the valley

I will fear no evil

When enemies surround me

You prepare a table

Surely goodness and mercy will follow me

Surely goodness and mercy will follow me


There is beauty in the struggle

You don?t waste a single day

Your presence is my shelter

Your presence is my victory


I can?t see it all

But I have seen enough to know

Oh, You are faithful


When I?m in the valley

I will fear no evil

When enemies surround me

You prepare a table

Surely goodness and mercy will follow me

Surely goodness and mercy will follow me
