[Verse 1: John Cooper] Days in darkness rolling by And how the years betray us And our dreams escape us The world I wanted turned to night Love became a shadow Where did the time go? [Pre-Chorus: John Cooper] Someone said this is all part of the plan But I don't understand [Chorus: John Cooper] Now that I walk through the valley of death You're the light to guide me When I'm lost and can't see I'm holding on with all the strength I can Say you won't forget me 'Cause sometimes I don't believe That I am not alone in the valley of death [Verse 2: John Cooper] Love and laughter turn to tears What will come tomorrow? Is it joy or sorrow? Memories fading through the years Now I've got some smile lines We've had some good times [Pre-Chorus: John Cooper] I can't help wondering how much time is left 'Cause I'm not ready yet [Chorus: John Cooper] Now that I walk through the valley of death You're the light to guide me When I'm lost and can't see I'm holding on with all the strength I can Say you won't forget me 'Cause sometimes I don't believe That I am not alone in the valley of death [Bridge: John Cooper] When I can't carry on Enter into the unknown When I'm with you where I belong When the night's too hard to take And the starlight starts to fade Come and find me, I need to be saved Before it's too late [Chorus: John Cooper, Jen Ledger] Now that I walk through the valley of death You're the light to guide me When I'm lost and can't see I'm holding on with all the strength I can Say you won't forget me 'Cause sometimes I don't believe (I don't believe) [Chorus: John Cooper, Jen Ledger] Now that I walk through the valley of death (Through the valley of death) You're the light to guide me (To guide me) When I'm lost can't see (I can't see) I'm holding on with all the strength I can (With the strength that I can) Say you won't forget me (Forget me) 'Cause sometimes I don't believe (I don't believe) That I am not alone (I am not alone) That I am not alone (I am not alone) That I am not alone In the valley of death
