"And He cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? Couldest not thou watch one hour? Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak" (Mark 14:37,38).
It should come as no surprise
That in our flesh we have no power,
When those situations rise
Which try us in temptation's hour.
What we need is honesty,
Admitting that our flesh is weak,
Praying therefore hourly
For the strength in Christ we seek.
Let us now be diligent,
For soon the hour will be past.
Watch and pray! Be vigilant
Until we hear the trumpet blast!
