A mighty fortress is our God
Em C D G
A bulwark never failing

Our helper He amid the flood
Em C D G
Of mortal ills prevailing
Em A7 D
For still our ancient foe

Doth seek to work us woe
Em A7 D
His craft and power are great
C Am B7
and armed with cruel hate
Em Bm C G Em C D G
On earth is not his equal
[Verse 2]
G D Em D
Did we in our own strength confide
Em C D G
Our striving would be losing

Were not the right Man on our side

The Man of God's own choosing

Dost ask who that may be

Christ Jesus it is He
Em A7 D
Lord Sab-a-oth His Name

From age to age the same
Em Bm C G Em C D G
And He must win the bat-tle
[Verse 3]
G D Em D
And though this world with devils filled
Em C D G
Should threaten to undo us
G D Em D
We will not fear for God hath willed
Em C D G
His truth to triumph through us
Em A7 D
The prince of darkness grim
D B7 Em
We tremble not for him
Em A7 D
His rage we can endure
C Am B7
For lo his doom is sure
Em Bm C G Em C D G
One little word will fell him
[Chorus]

That word above all earthly powers
Em C D G
No thanks to them abideth

The Spirit and the gifts are ours

This mortal life also
Em A7 D
The body they may kill

God's truth abideth still
