_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ Now our special musical guest, _ a privilege to have, Steve Green.
_ _ _ A mighty _ fortress is [B] our _ _ God, [Bb] _ _ _ a bulwark never _ _ failing,
_ _ _ _ _ [B] a helper he amid the _ floods [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] prevailing. _ _ _ _ _
For still our ancient _ foe doth seek to work us [Bb] _
woe.
His [B] craft and power [A] are great, _ and armed with [Bb] cruel _ _ _ hate.
_ [Bb] _
On earth is not his _ equal. _ _ _ _ _ _
[F] Did we in our own strength confide, [Ab] our striving would be _ losing.
_ Were not the right man on our side, the man of God's own _ choosing. _ _ _ _
Dost ask who that [Bb] may be?
Christ [Db] Jesus it is _ [Bb] he, Lord, sum of all his name. _
From age to age the _ _ same.
_ And he must win the _ battle. _ _
_ _ _ _ And though this world with devil's will should threaten to undo _ us,
we will not fear for God hath willed his truth to triumph [Eb] [Ab] through us.
The _ _ _ prince of darkness _ grim, we _ tremble not for [Bb] his _ rage we can _ endure.
_ For lo, _ his doom is sure.
_ _ _ _ _ _ One little word shall _ fail _ _ him. _ _ _ _
But _ what _ _ _ earthly powers, no thanks to them above.
_ _ [G] _ A spirit and our gifts [Bb] are ours through him who with us _ [E] sided.
_ _ _ _ Let goods and kindred [Eb] go.
_ This mortal [G] life a _ [Bb] story _ _ _ they may _ _ kill.
God's [Gb] truth [F] _ _ _ abideth _ still. _ _ _ _ _
_ His [B] kingdom is [E] forever. _
_ His kingdom is [Bb] forever. _

_ _ _ _ _ [Gbm] _ People want something genuine.
[A] And people _ would just like to be loved.
And would like to [D] be listened to and like to be helped and given to.
And [Em] boy I would really like for our concerts to be a [D] place where they can just sit back
[N] and sort of be bathed in the love of the Lord.
And afterward _ they have been blessed and I can look in their eyes and I can tell [Am] they've been blessed.
And [E] it's only right for me to give them an opportunity to explain to me _ _ what's happening to them
and how they were encouraged or how they were helped.
And oh I just can't [Bm] imagine not having that privilege because it's great for us to hear those things. _ _ _ _ _
