Saturday Song : Forty Days

On weekdays during the season of Lent, we post daily meditations on our website, and on Saturdays we include a piece of music, as well. These songs are submitted by parish family members and friends of Christ Church, and meant to uplift, comfort, and inspire.


We hope that you enjoy.


Forty days You wandered through the desert bleak

Forty days You withstood temptation

Forty days You wrestled, though the flesh be weak

You kept the faith for our salvation


Lord, we follow You

Lead us in your ways

Lord, we follow You

Guide us on, we pray


Forty days we pray, for strength to keep the fast

Forty days we walk in Your grace

Forty days we wait, till Easter comes at last

And we see the glory of Your face


Lord, we follow You

Lead us in your ways

Lord, we follow You

Guide us on, we pray


From ashes we came

To ashes we return

Blessed be the name of the Lord

From dust we came

To dust we return

Blessed be the name of the Lord
