A mighty Fortress is our God

1
A mighty Fortress is our God,
A Bulwark never failing;
Our Helper He amid the flood
Of mortal ills prevailing:
For still our ancient foe
Doth seek to work us woe;
His craft and power are great,
And, armed with cruel hate,
On earth is not his equal.
2
Did we in our own strength confide,
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;
Lord Sabaoth His Name,
From age to age the same,
And He must win the battle.
3
And though this world, with devils filled,
Should threaten to undo us,
We will not fear, for God hath willed
His truth to triumph through us:
The Prince of Darkness grim,
We tremble not for him;
His rage we can endure,
For lo! his doom is sure,
One little word shall fell him.
4
That word above all earthly powers,
No thanks to them, abideth;
The Spirit and the gifts are ours
Through Him who with us sideth:
Let goods and kindred go,
This mortal life also;
The body they may kill:
God’s truth abideth still,
His Kingdom is forever.

It tells the story of life here this side of eternity. Conflict continues until the Lord comes again or takes us home to be with Him. But He is the Victor! And He loves us! So amazing!

Thank you for taking the time to compile these God-inspired, anointed by the Lord, hymns. I was looking for lyrics that we would take to a nursing home to sing with residents. What I found on your site, with the music, is a place where I, personally can come to worship the Lord, EVEN BY MYSELF! I have been so blessed this morning: worshipping the Lord, just He and I, singing these songs of gratitude and praise to Him. THANK YOU! God Bless you, greatly. ALL PRAISE AND GLORY TO OUR WONDERFUL LORD, who loves us so very much, UNCONDITIONALLY!

Один из прекрасных гимнов, о могуществе Божьем. Огромное спасибо создателям, и всем кто трудиться над сайтом. Приятно иметь мелодии гимнов у себя дома, и прославлять Господа не только в церкви, но и дома.

Just knowing I am not alone, to be reminded that He is always with us...covering, shielding, strengthening, sustaining us...we can turn to Him and rest...He is the one Who fights our battles, not me...I have to remember to let Him. Praise You and we love You, Lord Jesus Christ!!

Indeed, God is a mighty fortress and in Him alone we will hide because we are well protected by His power.
