The pathway is broken
And The signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason why You brought me here
But just because You love me the way that You do
I'm gonna walk through the valley
If You want me to
Chorus:
Cause I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise You're not through with me yet
so if all of these trials bring me closer to you
Then I will walk through the fire
If You want me to
It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a world that's not my home
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'd never go alone
ya oh oh no
So When the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering Your love put You through
And I will go through the valley If You want me to

Review about If You Want Me To Faith is on my side | Reviewer: Deanna | 8/27/09
Life isn't easy, but if you have faith in yourself you can handle anything. I just started college, I thought I wasn't going to make it this far but look at me now. All my struggles with life have caused me to be stronger and I can now handle anything.
I will never forget the first time I heard this song. It truly ministered to me. I was pulling into the church's parking lot and this song brought tears to my eyes. It also happens to be the week that I was waiting on some test results for my nine year old son. My son had a lump on his right hip and things looked very grim. He keep complaining of pain and ask me why god wasn't healing him. But thanks be to God the results came back and my son is pain free and lump free. God is truly amazing.
I just came out of a very phyically abusive marriage and my whole world literally did turn against me. my family and my church family. My husband was a leader in our church and no one could believe that he would ever do something like that.... I heard this songs and I brought me to tears. It gives me so much hope.
I'm walked through the fire and I praise God that he loves me the way that he does.

I love this song! It has helped me realize no matter how many times I fail at something God is beside me. I graduated with my bachelors in Nursing a year ago. But can't practice as a nurse because I keep failing state boards, but because of these trials it has and will continue to bring me closer to God! I know one day through Christ I will pass my exam and all glory will go to God!!!!
The Burden that I carry...I give it to You! | Reviewer: Jennifer L | 3/24/09
I am a junior in the university. I am not quite sure why I love this song so much. I just want to let you know that I'm going get baptism this upcoming weekend. I love Him, family, and friends. I am scared, but I know He will show me his love and comfort once I get in. I guess I like this song is because there are many problems that I see in my friends. I pray that God will take care of it. I thank you for your time to read this. Pray for me that I know what He will show me why I'm this way.
I had an aneurysm at the age of 22. My nephew and mom died 1 week apart from each other about a year ago and was getting out of an abusive marriage a week after all of that. I have been addicted to drugs, never knew my father until the age of 15. Had a car accident where a lady was hit while she was walking on the interstate and eventually died. I sat in my living room crying out to God . . .Why?! I was not yielding to God's will . . . until He spoke to me through this amazing song. I now walk which ever valley He wants me to. Forever Yielded, Melanie Kertz

This song has helped me too. Cancer visited our family three times last year. I really like the part about it not being what you would have chosen, because we tend to think that it isn't fair to go through hard times. But God is bringing us closer and I think that is the message, to just trust and HE will bring you close to Him. No better place to be!
I heard about this song on Alisa Childers' (another great Christian musician) MySpace. She was saying how sometimes we never use the talents we're given because we're afraid there will always be someone better. Alisa said when she first heard this song ("If you want me to") she thought "That's it-no one can write a another song EVER, cause this one is the BEST", so she was discouraged from going solo, but she eventually did.
When I read that, I thought "Gosh, I gotta hear that song!" and WOW! I can see why she thought that! It's so beautiful! But there isn't a final stanza to the song...at least not in the version on Ginny's myspace...
Anyway, I will walk through the valley and the fire..if HE wants me to! God Bless, everyone!

Goodness this song is so incredibly touching. I played it for a friend who's struggleing with her relationship with God & it brought her to tears. She posts blogs on her myspace about things that happened during the day & that day she simply posted these lyrics.
Missing last stanza of song!! | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/11/07
Here it is:
When I cross over Jordan, I'm gonna sing, gonna shout
Gonna look into your eyes and see you never let me down
So take me on the pathway that leads me home to you
And I will walk through the valley if you want me to
Yes, I will walk through the valley if you want me to
