[Intro] Jesus's Temptation in the Wilderness - Matthew 4: 1-11 Tune is Jamaica Farewell by Harry Belafonte [Chorus]
G                        Am
Well I'm sad to say, I'm here to pray

D                   G
Won't be eating for 40 days

G                                Am
Just been baptized, It's time I exercised

     G          D       G
My ability to face the tempter's lies
[Verse 1]
G                         C
"Why don't you turn these stones to bread?

            G        D      G
That would show you are the Son of God."

G                     C
"Man does not live on bread alone

       G       D            G
But on every word from the mouth of God."

Won't be eating for 40 days

G                                Am
Just been baptized, It's time I exercised

     G          D       G
My ability to face the tempter's lies
[Verse 2]
G                      C
"To prove you are the Son of God

           G        D       G
Why not jump from high into angel's hands?"

G                     C
"Because we must not test our God

      G       D           G
And I follow what he does command."
[Chorus]
G                        Am
Well I'm sad to say, I'm here to pray

D                   G
Won't be eating for 40 days

G                                Am
Just been baptized, It's time I exercised

My ability to face the tempter's lies
[Verse 3]
G                      C
"Look at the kingdoms of the world

        G      D         G
If you worship me, they are your own!"

G                      C
"Away you Satan, God's command is

     G       D         G
We worship Him and Him alone!"
[Final Chorus]
G                        Am
Well I'm glad to say, I came to pray!

D                   G
And I'll be going home today!

G                        Am
I passed the test; I'll do the rest.

       G              D         G
I was tempted, I was true, and I'll be bless'd.
