Lord Jesus, Thou the Church's Head
A Mighty Fortress is Our God
Author: Martin Luther Hymnal: Lutherförbundets Sångbok #E142 (1913) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.5.6.6.7 Lyrics: 1 A mighty Fortress is our God,
A trusty Shield and Weapon;
He helps us in our ev'ry need
That hath us now o'ertaken.
The old malignant foe
Means us deadly woe:
Deep guile and cruel might
Are his dread arms in fight,
On earth is not his equal.
2 With might of ours can naught be done,
Soon were our loss effected;
But for us fights the Valiant One
Whom God Himself elected.
Ask ye who this may be?
Jesus Christ, 'tis He,
As Lord of Hosts adored,
Our only King and Lord,
He holds the field forever.
3 Tho' devils all the world should fill,
All watching to devour us,
We tremble not, we fear no ill,
They shall not overpow'r us.
For this world's prince may still
Scowl fiercely as he will,
We need not be alarmed,
For he is now disarmed:
One little word o'erthrows him.
4 The Word they still shall let remain,
Nor any thanks have for it;
He's by our side upon the plain,
With His good gifts and Spirit.
Take they, then, what they will,
Life, goods, all; and still,
E'en when their worst is done,
They yet have nothing won;--
The kingdom ours remaineth.

In death it is our stay.

We keep its teachings pure

you are her one foundation;
in you she trusts, before you bows,
and waits for your salvation.
Built on this rock secure,
your Church shall endure
though all the world decay
and all things pass away.
O hear, O hear us, Jesus!
2 O Lord, let this your little flock,
your name alone confessing,
continue in your loving care,
true unity possessing.
Your sacraments, O Lord,
and your saving Word
to us e'er pure retain;
grant that they may remain
our only strength and comfort.
3 Help us to serve you evermore
with hearts both pure and lowly;
and may your Word, that light divine,
shine on in splendor holy
that we repentance show,
in faith ever grow;
the pow'r of sin destroy
and evils that annoy.
O make us faithful Christians.
4 And for your gospel let us dare
to sacrifice all treasure;
teach us to bear your blessed cross,
to find in you all pleasure.
O grant us steadfastness
in joy and distress.
Lord, for your mercy's sake,
let us by grace partake
of endless joy and glory. Topics: Church Scripture: Matthew 16:16-18 Languages: English Tune Title: REUTER
