  2. A mighty fortress is our GodA bulwark never failingOur helper He, amid the floodOf mortal ills prevailing

  3. For still our ancient foeDoth seek to work us woe

  4. His craft and pow’r are greatAnd, armed with cruel hateOn earth is not his equal

  5. Did we in our own strength confideOur striving would be losingWere not the right Man on our sideThe Man of God’s own choosing

  6. Dost ask who that may beChrist Jesus, it is He

  7. Lord Sabaoth, His nameFrom age to age the sameAnd He must win the battle

  8. And tho’ this world, with devils filledShould threaten to undo usWe will not fear, for God hath willedHis truth to triumph thro’ us

  9. The Prince of Darkness grimWe tremble not for him

  10. His rage we can endureFor lo, his doom is sureOne little word shall fell him

  11. That word above all earthly powersNo thanks to them, abidethThe Spirit and the gifts are oursThro’ Him who with us sideth

  12. Let goods and kindred goThis mortal life also

  13. The body they may killGod’s truth abideth stillHis kingdom is forever
