How long til I reach the end of this valley

Here are the lyrics, enjoy!

Chorus
How long, how long, till I reach the end of this valley?
How long, how long, till I sing a triumphant song?
Although my tears may endure for a night,
Joy will come in the morning,
So let the winds blow, the storms come and go, I'll make it no matter how long.

1.
One day Satan came to God and he asked to test brother Job,
He said to God, "Just take down your hedge and I will steal his soul."
So God said yes, but Job confessed, "I'll trust the Lord all the way."
And in the Bible we're told that he came forth as gold and won the victory that day.

Chorus

2.
Sometimes it seems our strength is gone, and hope has vanished away;
Our plans and dreams get lost, it seems; looks like trouble could be here to stay;
Oh, but look who's standing so near, my friend, He's here to help you find the way;
It's God's only son, and Jesus has come to bring you the victory today

Chorus
