A Mighty Fortress

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 pow'r are great,

And, armed with cruel hate,

On earth is not his equal.

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.

3

And tho' this world, with demons 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!
