I was down in the valley, way down in the valley When the Savior 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 There was darkness all around me when the Savior found me Way down in the valley of despair When I told Him all my troubles, my joys then He doubled I'm way up on the mountain rejoicing in His care I was down in the valley, way down in the valley When the Savior 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 Now if you don't watch old Satan, he'll get you in the valley And hide you from the Savior's guiding light But he will stay behind you and he will never find you Way up on the mountain if you fight the good fight I was down in the valley, way down in the valley When the Savior 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 I was down in the valley, way down in the valley When the Savior 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 I was down in the valley, way down in the valley When the Savior 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
