131. Lord, Who Throughout These Forty Days

1 Lord, who throughout these forty days
For us did fast and pray,
Teach us with you to mourn our sins,
And close by you to stay.

2 As you with Satan did contend,
And did the victory win,
O give us strength in you to fight,
In you to conquer sin.

3 And through these days of penitence,
And through your Passion-tide,
Yes, evermore, in life and death,
O Lord, with us abide.

4 Abide with us, so when this course
Of life on earth is past,
An Easter of unending joy
We may attain at last!

Amen.
