[N]
[D] A mighty fortress is our [A]
God, [Bb] [E]
Of [G] bulwark [B] never [Db] failing,
[Bb] [D] A helper [F] He amid the [A]
flood, [Dm] Of [F]
mortal ills [E]
prevailing.
[Bb]
For still [G] our ancient [Bb]
foe, Thus seek [Ab] to work us [D] woe,
His craft and power [B] are [Bb] great, [B] And armed with cruel [F]
hate.
[Bb]
[Bbm] On earth is not [B] His [D] equal,
[Bb] [D] Did we [F] in our own strength [Bb]
confide,
Our [Fm] striving would be losing, [Eb] Were [E]
not the right [Fm] man on our side,
[Eb] The man of God's [Am] own [E] choosing.
[Eb] Just ask who that may [Bb] be, Christ [B] Jesus [Eb] it is He,
Lord, [E] sub [Dm] off His [B] name, [Bb] From age to [C] age the [G] same.
[E] And [Ab] He must win the battle, [D]
[Bb]
And though this world with [Db]
devil's [B] will,
Should threaten to [Bb] undo [E] us, [F]
We will not fear, for [G] God [F] hath willed,
His [D] truth to triumph [Bbm] through.
[F]
[Bb]
The Prince [Bm] of [Fm] darkness grim, [F] We [D] tremble not [F] for Him,
His [Fm]
rage we can [F] endure,
[Db] [B] For lo, [Eb] His doom is sure.
[Bb]
[Ebm]
One little [Dm] word shall [Bb] [E] fail Him, [Bb]
[G] That word [Bb] above all [D] earthly [G] powers,
No thanks [A] to [E] them
[A] [Ab] abideth.
[G]
The Spirit and the gifts [Fm] are ours, [G] Through [D] Him [Bb] who with us [A]
sided.
[F] [Bb]
Let goods and [Eb] kindred go, This mortal life [Gm] also,
A body [Bb] they may [F]
kill, [Ab] God's truth
[F] abideth still.
[Bb] [G] His kingdom [F]
is [Bb] forever, His kingdom [F] is [D] forever,
Forever [Fm] and ever.
