181. Lord, Who Throughout These Forty Days

1 Lord, who throughout these 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 And through these days of penitence,
And through Thy passiontide,
Yea, evermore, in life and death,
Jesus! with us abide.

4 Abide with us, that so, this life
Of suffering overpast,
An Easter of unending joy
We may attain at last!

Amen.
