LaVern Baker, Bonnie Raitt And The Rock Hall Jam Band - Valley of Pain Lyrics

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
Whoa, 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
