Author: Claudia F. Hernaman Hymnal: Our Great Redeemer's Praise #223 (2022) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 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 vict'ry win,
O give us strength in Thee to fight,
in Thee to conquer sin.
3 As Thou didst hunger bear, and thirst,
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 passion-tide,
yes, evermore in life and death,
Jesus, with us abide.
5 Abide with us, that so, this life
of suff'ring over past,
an Easter of unending joy
we may attain at last. Topics: Jesus, Suffered, Dead, and Buried Lent and Passion Languages: English Tune Title: MORNING SONG
