Victory in the Valley

"There came a man of God, and spake unto the king of Israel, and said, Thus saith the Lord, Because the Syrians have said, the Lord is God of the hills, but He is not God of the valleys, therefore will I deliver all this great multitude into thine hand, and ye shall know that I am the Lord" (1 Kings 20:28).

Life is filled with highs and lows
Yet Jesus Christ is Lord of all:
Hills and valleys, thorn and rose,
Whether joy or sorrows call.

Hills ascend that thrill our soul;
These are high points in our life.
Valleys too can take their toll,
When we're tasting pain or strife.

Let it thus be clearly shown
That hills and valleys are the Lord's.
As through trials we make known
The peace and strength His grace affords.
