Tune: "Tell It to Jesus Alone"

Verse 1:
Je-sus led by the Spir-it in the de-sert
Was by him-self. He was all a-lo-ne.
Sa-tan came and tempt-ed him for three times.
First time he used a hard stone.

Chorus:
Are yo-u hung-ry? Make bread of this stone.
But our Sav-ior then said,
"It is writ-ten,'Sure-ly man shall not live
Just a-lone b-y bread.'"

Verse 2:
Then the de-vil showed him all the king-doms.
Oh, such a splen-dor Je-sus did se-e.
Satan said, "All this shall be for you
If you'll on-ly wor-sh-ip me.

Chorus:
Je-sus then ans-wered, "It i-s writ-ten"
As He had said be-fore
"You shall on-ly wor-ship God the Lor-d
He is the One we a-dore.

Verse 3:
Then he took him high up on the tem-ple
To th-e high-est place in the tow-n.
He said, "Cast your bod-y down from here and
An-gels won't let you fall down.

Chorus:
Je-sus then ans-wered, "Do no-t put the
Lord your God to the test."
Then the dev-il fin-ished with his tempt-ing
For a short while gave Him rest.

By Gwyn Borcherding / Concordia Publishing House

We all try very hard to do the right thing...but sometimes we fail. We give in to temptation and we misbehave or neglect our responsibilities. The good news is that regardless of how much we sin, we are forgiven because Jesus took the punishment for all our sins. This delightful rhyming book will remind you that God sent Jesus to be our Savior and to help us out of the messes we make.
