C               G  
A mighty fortress is our God,  
Am                F  
A bulwark never failing;  
C                   G  
Our helper He, amid the flood  
Am                  F  
Of mortal ills prevailing.  
C                G  
For still our ancient foe  
Am              F  
Doth seek to work us woe;  
C                 G  
His craft and power are great,  
Am                 F  
And armed with cruel hate,  
C              G  
On earth is not his equal.  

C               G  
Did we in our own strength confide,  
Am               F  
Our striving would be losing;  
C                G  
Were not the right Man on our side,  
Am                F  
The Man of God's own choosing.  
C                 G  
Dost ask who that may be?  
Am                F  
Christ Jesus, it is He;  
C                  G  
Lord Sabaoth, His name,  
Am                F  
From age to age the same,  
C                  G  
And He must win the battle.  

C               G  
And though this world, with devils filled,  
Am                 F  
Should threaten to undo us,  
C                G  
We will not fear, for God hath willed  
Am               F  
His truth to triumph through us.  
C                  G  
The Prince of Darkness grim,  
Am                  F  
We tremble not for him;  
C             G  
His rage we can endure,  
Am                F  
For lo, his doom is sure,  
C               G  
One little word shall fell him.  

C                G  
That word above all earthly powers,  
Am                F  
No thanks to them, abideth;  
C                 G  
The Spirit and the gifts are ours  
Am               F  
Through Him who with us sideth.  
C                G  
Let goods and kindred go,  
Am                F  
This mortal life also;  
C                G  
The body they may kill:  
Am                 F  
God's truth abideth still,  
C                 G  
His kingdom is forever.
