Forty Days And Forty Nights - Instrumental

Forty Days and Forty Nights (A Man Called John)

In the year A.D. 31 the Spirit descended upon him 

Descended upon him like a dove

And heard from heaven a voice by the Father

Who said

This is my beloved Son

This is my beloved Son

The Baptist cried

Behold the Lamb of God who 

Who taketh away 

Who taketh away

The sins of the world

The sins of the world

Now is the time for me to decrease

For the One has come who must increase

He must increase

One whose sandals I am not worthy to loosen

Whose sandals

 I am unworthy 

Into the wilderness by the Spirit was lead

Into the wilderness by the Spirit was lead

Into the wilderness by the Spirit was lead

Fasting for forty days and forty nights

And satan came to him as an angel of light

And in the severest way he was tempted

Deception of the worst kind

But in him no fault he could find

The victory was his and mine

The word of God written upon his heart

And he quenched every fiery dart

He quenched every fiery dart

There was nothing satan could say so he fled away

There was nothing so he fled away

The final phase of his mission had begun

To show us all that we can overcome

And he broke free from the bonds of appetite

Final phase of his mission had begun

To show us all we can overcome

He broke free from the bond of appetite 

That we might also be free

Oh and now the way to life was paved

And through Jesus we can be saved

Oh in the universal controversy

In the universal controversy

Satan’s evil sophistry tried to get sin to be immortalized

The battle he had lost and revealed was all of his lies

And he is overcome

Oh he is overcome

His victory and we to have won

Yes he has overcome

Oh

Praise for he has overcome the world

The law has been fulfilled

That we unto the fullness

Can be fulfilled unto fullness of Christ

The fullness of love

 About Us:

This world is a dry and weary land.

All around us are people dying for a drink of fresh, new life.

In the Bible, drought and famine were used as a symbol of the lack or withdrawal of God's blessing. 

Like the prodigal son and the lost sheep, we have all chosen to leave the safety and security of God's love and favor, enticed by our own lusts and the alluring but empty and deadly deceptions of the enemy of our souls.

We find ourselves lost, alone, broken, hungry, thirsty and on the brink of death.

But none have strayed so far that they cannot return. 

Jesus actively seeks and works to rescue every last one of His precious souls redeemed from destruction by the very high price of His spotless life and terrible death on their behalf.

As the world departs further and further from God, and you find yourself in a dark, lonely desert place longing for hope, faith, love and a future, remember that Jesus loves you.

Cry out to Him for help and surrender your life back to Him.

He promised He would take you back, always.

We pray the music ministry of The Rain refreshes your dry and weary soul, and opens your heart for the outpouring of God's Holy Spirit in these end times. 

And if you want to use any of the instrumental tracks to sing to at your church or other live function, please feel free! We would love that. We love radio play too! Feel free to play any and all songs and tracks on your radio station or website if you have one. Spreading God's love through music makes us happy. God inhabits the praise of His people!

Love,
Nick and Lauren
