Jonah and the Whale

Deep in the Desert

Jesus was wandering

Deep in the desert,

For 40 days, he was all alone,

Jesus was hungry,

Jesus was thirsty,

The greatest test he'd ever known.

Jesus was tempted

Deep in the desert,

To make selfish use of God's holy power.

Jesus said, "No I won't,"

Jesus said, "Go away,"

The devil did not win the hour.

Satan was vanquished

Deep in the desert,

Just as he would be on Easter morn,

Jesus victorious,

Eternal life glorious,

Purchased for us with a crown of thorns.

Heavenly Father,

Jesus, Holy Spirit,

Give us each the strength to accept your Grace,

To reject the easy path,

Hold fast to God's great truths,

Bring peace to all the human race.
