Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
Throughout these forty days O Lord
With You we fast and pray;
That flesh subdued and spirit freed,
Your will we may obey.
VERSE 2
Throughout these days of penitence
Through Lent and passion tide;
Take up your cross in us again,
In us be crucified.
VERSE 3
As you repelled temptation Lord
And conquered Satan's reign;
Give us the strength to conquer sin
And live by grace again.
VERSE 4
Do not abandon us O Lord
But keep us at your side
That we may rise to life anew
Redeemed and glorified.
