Author: Claudia Frances Hernaman Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #84 (1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Satan, Conflict with Christ and Christians Lyrics: 1 Lord, Who throughout those forty days
For us didst fast and pray,
Teach us with Thee to mourn our sins,
And close by Thee to stay.
2 As Thou with Satan didst contend,
And didst the victory win,
O give us strength in Thee to fight,
In Thee to conquer sin.
3 As thirst and hunger Thou didst bear,,
So teach us, gracious Lord,
To die to self, and chiefly live
By Thy most holy Word.
4 And through these days of penitence,
And through Thy Passiontide,
Yea, evermore, in life and death,
Jesus, with us abide.
5 Abide with us, that so, this life
Of suffering overpast,
An Easter of unending joy
We may attain at last.
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 4:1-11 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. FLAVIAN
