Scripture references: Matthew 4:1-11; Mark 1:12-13; Luke 4:1-13)

It’s humbling to witness Jesus in the wilderness –
He has such strength, such courage, a peacefulness.
No challenge, not even the devil, can break him down –
Just one sharp rebuke removing temptation from His thought.

He has such strength, such courage, a peacefulness –
Jesus knows God is with him as he fasts.
Just one sharp rebuke removes temptation from His thought –
I realise, I too, receive that gift of strength from God.

Jesus knows God is with him as he fasts –
No challenge, not even the devil, can break him down.
I realise, I too, receive that gift of strength from God –
It’s humbling to witness Jesus in the wilderness!
