Though the shadow-of-death surrounds me, as I walk through Death-Valley
I will not be afraid and I will not fear…
For the one who walks with me is greater than any doubts I may hear…
I trust in the one who is greater than any terror, any foe…
I will walk and as I go…
Ten thousand shall fall at my right hand and at my left, but this I know
In Him I put my trust, in Him I am bold!!!
The shadow beckons and nips at my heels…
Onward I walk, I will not yield…
I’ve walked with the living among the dead…
Jesus, open my heart and let me be led…
From morning-dawn, until sun-set come, I’ll not be shaken by the evil one…
I’ve put my life in the Conqueror’s hands…
I do not stand on sinking sand…
I stand upright though weariness tries me, my feet are steadfast
His love-light lasts…
The goons may come, but only so far…
For God in heaven is my morning star…
I live and move and breathe and have my being
In True-Life’s source…
Be gone demon-death-force…I am redeemed
His blood you cannot cross… He covers me with His feathers
To Him I am tethered…
Death-Valley is only a pathway, I will reach the other side
Though strong-wind tries to bend me, and storms bring crashing tides…
Though fires want to devour me and beast try to take my life…
You have no authority to destroy me, because I am of the Bride of Christ!
So, be gone you feeble, slithering, defeated outcast…
Angel armies have arrived at last…
Blood bought, set apart, called and redeemed…I am a Child of the Mighty God-King!!
Washed in the blood of Jesus…
Sanctified by His Word…
Healed by His stripes…
Saved by his Love!!!
Delivered, sung over, blessed by the best!!
My walk through death valley was only a test!!!
Hear my testimony…and come walk with Jesus and me…
Here and now, I’ve overcome and we have won…
Children of Life-Valley Come!

Psalm 23:4 King James Version
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Psalm 23:4 The Passion Translation
4 Even when your path takes me through the valley of deepest darkness, fear will never conquer me, for you already have! Your authority is my strength and my peace. [a] The comfort of your love takes away my fear. I’ll never be lonely, for you are near.
