Good Shepherd, I trust in You
To carry me through all the things I go through
Redeemer, I love You
Because I know that it’s true, that it’s You I belong to
And You’ll never leave or forsake me
And out of this place, I know You’ll take me
Lily of the valley,
You’re bright and morning star
Wherever I go, You’re with me
Wherever I am, You are
The Lily of the valley,
You’re the one who finds His sheep
And carries them on His shoulder
Like I know You’re carrying me… Lily of the valley
Great Healer, I come to You
Needing You to be my substitute
Deliverer, I worship You
Because I know that You’ll prove Yourself to be true
You are my refuge of safety
And out of this place, I know You’ll take me
Lily of the valley,
You’re bright and morning star
Wherever I go, You’re with me
Wherever I am, You are
The Lily of the valley,
You’re the one who finds His sheep
And carries them on His shoulder
Like I know You’re carrying me… Lily of the valley
Behind the Song:This song came to me during on of the most painful times in my life. I was stuck in New York City alone and had just gotten back from the hospital, being diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder. It was mid-day and there was this old, beat-up upright piano in this church I was sleeping at. This song seemed to come right out of the keys.
