A Mighty Fortress Lyrics

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

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 Sabbaoth, His name
From age to age the same
And he must win the battle

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
We know, his doom is sure
One little word will fell him

One little word will fell him
One little word will fell him

That word above all earthly powers
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 is living still
His kingdom is
Forever and ever, Amen
