Verse 1
A
mighty fortress is our God
A
bulwark never failing
Our
helper He amid the flood
Of
mortal ills prevailing
For
still our ancient foe
Doth
seek to work us woe
His
craft and power are great
And
armed with cruel hate
On
earth is not his equal
Verse
2
Did
we in our own strength confide
Our
striving would be losing
Were
not the right man on our side
The
man of God's own choosing
Dost
ask who that may be
Christ
Jesus it is He
Lord
Sabaoth His name
From
age to age the same
And
He must win the battle
Verse
3
And
though this world
With
devils filled
Should
threaten to undo us
We will not fear
For
God hath willed
His
truth to triumph through us
The
prince of darkness grim
We
tremble not for him
His
rage we can endure
For
lo his doom is sure
One
little word shall fell him
Verse 4
That
word above all earthly pow'rs
No
thanks to them abideth
The
Spirit and the gifts are ours
Through
Him who with us sideth
Let
goods and kindred go
This
mortal life also
The
body they may kill
God's
truth abideth still
His
kingdom is forever
