1 Forty days and forty nights
You were fasting in the wild;
Forty days and forty nights
Tempted and yet undefiled.

2 Shall not we your sorrow share
And from worldly joys abstain,
Fasting with unceasing prayer,
Strong with you to suffer pain?

3 Then if Satan on us press,
Flesh or spirit to assail,
Victor in the wilderness,
Grant we may not faint nor fail!

4 So shall we have peace divine:
Holier gladness ours shall be;
Round us, too, shall angels shine,
Such as served you faithfully.

5 Keep, O keep us, Savior dear,
Ever constant by your side;
That with you we may appear
At the eternal Eastertide.
