Is still God in the valley
When things go wrong
He'll make them right
And the God of the good times
Is still God in the bad times
The God of the day
Is still God in the night
For the God on the mountain
Is still God in the valley
When things go wrong
He'll make them right
And the God of the good times
Is still God in the bad times
The God of the day
Is still God in the night
The God of the day
Is still God in the night
