A Mighty Fortress is our God

Author: Martin Luther Appears in 27 hymnals Topics: Church Festivals Reformation; New Year; Trust and Confidence; Closing Hymns Lyrics: 1 A mighty fortress is our God, A trusty shield and weapon; Our help is He in all our need, Our stay, whate'er doth happen; For still our ancient foe Doth seek to work us woe: Strong mail of craft and power He weareth in this hour; On earth is not his equal. 2 Stood we alone in our own might, Our striving would be losing; For us the one true Man doth fight, The Man of God's own choosing. Who is this chosen One? 'Tis Jesus Christ, the Son. The Lord of hosts, 'tis He Who wins the victory In ev'ry field of battle. 3 And were the world with devils filled, All watching to devour us, Our souls to fear we need not yield, They cannot overpower us; Their dreaded prince no more Can harm us as of yore; His rage we can endure; For lo! his doom is sure, A word shall overthrow him.
