The Glory of These Forty Days

Bell, 1862-1947 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 35 hymnals Scripture: John 15:14-15 Lyrics: 1 The glory of these forty days We celebrate with songs of praise; For Christ, by whom all things were made, Himself has fasted and has prayed. 2 Alone and fasting Moses saw The loving God who gave the law; And to Elijah, fasting, came The steeds and chariots of flame. 3 So Daniel trained his mystic sight, Delivered from the lions' might; And John, the Bridegroom’s friend, became The herald of Messiah's name. 4 Then grant that we like them be true, Consumed in fast and pray'r with you; Our spirits strengthen with your grace, And give us joy to see your face. 5 O Father, Son, and Spirit blest, To you be ev'ry pray'r addressed; Who are in threefold Name adored, From age to age, the only Lord.
