Extract:
Jesus met supreme temptation,
countered subtlety with skill;
ever faithful to one purpose,
still committed to God's will.
With no food he soon was famished,
hunger racked him, filled his mind,
then a voice had come to taunt him,
'bread is there for you to find'.
Each illusion he would parry,
each temptation run to ground;
all the world was for the asking,
yet his faith was strong and sound.
