Hymn/Song Information

The glory of these forty days We




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.


Alone and fasting Moses saw
The loving God Who gave the law;
And to Elijah, fasting, came
The steeds and chariots of flame.


So Daniel trained his mystic sight,
Delivered from the lions’ might;
And John, the
Bridegroom’s friend, became
The herald of Messiah’s Name.


Then grant us, Lord, like them to be
Full oft in fast and prayer with Thee;
Our spirits strengthen with Thy grace,
And give us joy to see Thy face.


O Father, Son, and Spirit blest,
To thee be every prayer addressed,
Who art in threefold Name adored,
From age to age, the only Lord.
