How great was our dear Lord's distress

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 22 Lyrics: 1 How great was our dear Lord's distress; His trials how severe: When in a howling wilderness, He strove with Satan there. 2 That foe assault's him with disdain; Thou art here left alone, To suffer hunger, thirst and pain-- Would God forsake his son! 3 Now to supply thy present need; Art thou the son of God! Command these stones that they be bread, Supply thyself with food. 4 May we reply as Jesus did, When we are tempted too! This is the means, by which we rid, Ourselves of such a foe. 5 Man does not live by bread alone, But by that sacred word: By which all things are made and done, As order'd by the Lord. 6 In various ways the tempter tried, To cause the Saviour's fall; But was defeated and defied, And miss'd his aim in all. 7 Christ conquer'd and he gain'd the day, In all he overcame-- To him we look, to him we pray, And we shall do the same. 8 To his dear word and promises, We ever have recourse; In him always have we success, To banish Satan's force.
