Forty Days And Forty Nights

1. Forty days and forty nights

You were fasting in the wild.

Forty days and forty nights tempted,

and yet undefiled.

2. Shall not we your sorrow share

and from worldly joys abstain.

Fasting with unceasing prayer,

strong with you to suffer pain?

3. Then if satan on us press,

flesh or spirit to assail.

Victor in the wilderness,

grant we may not faint nor fail!

4. So shall we have peace divine:

holier gladness ours shall be.

Round us, too, shall angels shine,

such as served you faithfully.

5. Keep, O keep us, Savior dear,

ever constant by your side,

That with you may appear

at th'eternal Eastertide.

Heinlein

Fill The World With Love

1. In the morning of my life,

I shall look to the sunrise,

At a moment in my life when the world is new.

And the blessing I shall ask,

Is that God will grant me:

To be brave and strong and true,

And to fill the world with love my whole life through.

(Chorus)

And to fill the world with love

And to fill the world with love

And to fill the world with love my whole life through

2. In the noontime of my life 

I shall look to the sunshine,

At a moment in my life,

When the sky is blue.

And the blessing I shall ask 

Will remain unchanging:

To be brave and strong and true,

And to fill the world with love my whole life through.

(Chorus)

And to fill the world with love,

And to fill the world with love,

And to fill the world with love my whole life through.

3. In the evening of my life,

I shall look to the sunset,

At a moment in my life 

when the night is due.

And the question I shall ask 

Only I can answer:

Was I brave and strong and true,

Did I  fill the world with love 

My whole life through?

Petula Clark
