Good it is to keep the fast, Shadowed forth in ages past, Which our own Almighty Lord Hallowed by His deed and Word. Moses, while he fasted, saw God Who gave by him the law; To Elijah angels came, Steeds of fire and car of flame. So was Daniel meet to gaze On the sight of latter days And the Baptist to proclaim Blessings through the Bridegroom???s Name. Grant us, Lord, like them to be Oft in prayer and fast with Thee; Fill us with Thy heavenly might, Be our Joy and true Delight. Father, hear us through Thy Son, And the Spirit, with Thee One, Whom our thankful hearts adore, Ever and forevermore.
