The Temptations of Jesus Rap

Colleen and I created this rap at YLC (Youth Leadership Core) as a presentation of Jesus going through temptations. Jesus spent 40 days without food or drink in the desert just fasting and praying and Satan tried to tempt Him to get him to give in, but Jesus resisted.

(just put it with a sick beat!)
Jesus went into the desert to get away
he stayed there and ate nothing for 40 days
Satan appeared and tempted him with bread
but Jesus was strong and quoted scripture instead
Jesus said man does not live on bread alone
and the glory of God was then shown.

Satan offered Jesus all the kindgdoms of the earth
if he would bow down and exclaim Satan's worth
Jesus said worship the Lord your God and serve Him only
if you do, He'll be with you and you'll never be lonely
the devil wasnt giving up. He had to decieve
he still had a trick up his sleeve.

The devil led Jesus to the top of a holy place
"Prove that your God will save you by grace.
Will your angels catch you if you fall?
Or will they let you die cause they dont care at all?"
Jesus answered," Do not put the Lord your God to the test
Now away from me Satan, you are such a pest!"
