VERSE 1
B A mighty fortress Eis our BGod, E
G#m a bulwark never EfailBing; E
B Our helper He, aEmid the Bflood E
G#m of mortal ills preEvaiBling:
For G#mstill our F#/A#ancient Bfoe
Doth Bseek to F#/A#work us G#mwoe;
His G#mcraft and F#/A#power are Bgreat,
And, Earmed with cruel D#mhate,
E On earth is not his F#/A#equBal.

VERSE 2
B If we in our own Estrength conBfide, E
G#m Our striving would be ElosBing; E
B Were not the right Man Eon our Bside, E
G#m The Man of God’s own EchoosBing:
You G#mask who F#/A#that may Bbe?
Christ BJesus, F#/A#it is G#mHe;
The G#mLord of F#/A#hosts His BName,
From Eage to age the D#msame,
E And He must win the F#/A#batBtle.
VERSE 3
B And though this world, with Edevils Bfilled, E
G#m Should threaten to unEdo Bus,
B We will not fear, for EGod hath Bwilled E
G#m His truth to triumph Ethrough Bus
The G#mPrince of F#/A#Darkness Bgrim,
We Btremble F#/A#not for G#mhim;
His G#mrage we F#/A#can enBdure,
For Elo! his doom is D#msure,
E One little word shall F#/A#fell Bhim.
VERSE 4
B That word above all Eearthly Bpowers, E
G#m No thanks to them, aEbiBdeth; E
B The Spirit and the Egifts are Bours E
G#m Through Him who with us EsiBdeth:
Let G#mgoods and F#/A#kindred Bgo,
This Bmortal F#/A#life alG#mso;
The G#mbody F#/A#they may Bkill:
God’s Etruth abideth D#mstill,
E His Kingdom is forever.
