1.	In the Valley 04:22	lyrics	buy track
VERSE 1 When You lead me to the valley of vision I can see You in the heights And though my humbling wouldn’t be my decision It’s here Your glory shines so bright So let me learn that the cross precedes the crown To be low is to be high That the valley’s where You make me more like Christ CHORUS Let me find Your grace in the valley Let me find Your life in my death Let me find Your joy in my sorrow Your wealth in my need That You’re near with every breath In the valley VERSE 2 In the daytime there are stars in the heavens But they only shine at night And the deeper that I go into darkness The more I see their radiant light So let me learn that my losses are my gain To be broken is to heal That the valley’s where Your power is revealed Credits: Words and music by Bob Kauflin © 2006 Sovereign Grace Praise (BMI)

VERSE 1 You were broken that I might be healed You were cast off that I might draw near You were thirsty that I might come drink Cried out in anguish that I might sing CHORUS How deep is Your love How high and how wide is Your mercy How deep is Your grace Our hearts overflow with praise To You VERSE 2 You knew darkness that I might know light Wept great tears that mine might be dried Stripped of glory that I might be clothed Crushed by Your Father to call me Your own Credits: Words and music by Stephen Altrogge © 2006 Sovereign Grace Praise (BMI)

VERSE 1 Jesus, I am blind, be my light Darkened in my mind, be my wisdom Bend my stubborn will to Your own Open up my ears to hear Your Spirit Melt my conscience once again Help me hate the slightest sin And when Satan comes to tempt me CHORUS I come running to You, when I fear, when I’m tried I come running to You, to Your blood, to Your side And there my soul finds rest There my soul finds rest in You VERSE 2 Shepherd of my soul, lead me on To the pastures green in Your Scriptures Make me to lie down by waters still Fill me with Your peace in the tempest I take my refuge in Your cross By your sacrifice I’m washed And when Satan comes accusing VERSE 3 Once I was Your foe, a slave to sin A stranger to Your love, a hopeless outcast But You have brought me near, I’m bought with blood Now I’m Your precious child, an heir with Jesus You pour heaven into my soul Your wondrous love, it overflows And I marvel how You love me Credits: Words and music by Mark Altrogge © 2005 Sovereign Grace Praise (BMI)

about

Someone might ask, “Why produce an album inspired by the prayers of a bunch of dead guys?” That’s an easy one. Puritans like John Bunyan, Thomas Watson, Richard Baxter, and Isaac Watts knew their hearts, their Bibles, and their God much better than we do.

These prayers reveal a personal, humble, passionate relationship with an awesome God, a living Savior, and an active Spirit. Reading their meditations inspires us to pursue the same level of reality as we worship God.

Valley of Vision includes twelve songs that draw from these prayers at various levels and in various ways. Some use a few phrases from a specific prayer, others develop a particular idea, and a few try to capture the original flow of thought, using many of the original words.

We hope two things will happen when you listen to this album:

First, we pray that your relationship with God will deepen as the truths expressed in these songs are sown into your heart. Truths like the deception and pervasiveness of indwelling sin...the power of the gospel to secure our forgiveness and freedom...our utter dependence on God...God’s sovereignty in the midst of sufferings...and a passion for God’s purposes on the earth. We trust these songs will make you more aware of God’s holiness and more amazed at our Savior’s sacrifice for undeserving sinners.

Second, we hope you will read, many times over, the grace-drenched, Christ-exalting, biblically faithful book of prayers that inspired these songs. We pray that you won’t simply read them, but that they will become a springboard for your own prayers and meditation in your relationship with our great, merciful, and changeless God who is, ever and always, there to meet us in the Valley of Vision.
