I was down in the valley way down in the valley when the Saviour heard my feeble cry Now I'm back up on the mountain way up on the mountain Drinking from the fountain that never will run dry Well there was darkness all around me when my Saviour found me Way down in the valley of dispair But when I told him all my troubles my joys and he doubled Now I'm back up on the mountain rejoicing in his care Well I was down in the valley... If it don't watch old Satan he'll get you in the valley And hide you from the Saviour's guiding light But he will stay behind you and he will never find you Way up on ther mountain if you fight a good fight Well I was down in the valley... Yes I was down in the valley... Well I said I was down in the valley...
