You know, O Lord, the desires of my heart Wisdom and knowledge to me impart I long to serve you and do your will Help me to climb this long steep hill
When I reach the long awaited top And behold your wonders as I stop Renew my strength, my faith, my zeal Let me once more your presence feel
Let your great love envelope me And your glory and power let me see The valley has been deep and drear Your sweet voice I long to hear
When you deliver me from this wilderness I will tell others of your love and faithfulness This wilderness time has not been in vain Sweet fellowship with you I did gain
Valleys and hills are all a part of life's plan So we can learn to trust Jesus, not man The top of the hill is in sight How I rejoice, I have fought the good fight
You have set the times and the seasons For the valleys you have your reasons Thank you, O Lord, for your wise ways You know the number of our days
