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.

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.

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.

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.
The hymn is a sure inspiration that summarises how the Godhead has designed to through empty vessels as we, prevail over the ancient foe, the accuser of the brethren and enemy of the truth, in the battle of the ages. We praise God for his designs and wisdom to have included mortals, yea redeemed mortals as channels of exalting the truth, even Jesus Christ our Captain. Glory to the Father, to the Son and to the blessed Holy Spirit forever and ever. Amen!
Always a proclamation and reminder of God's grace and loving power by which we are saved through faith in Jesus Christ His Son . We face the perils of this world , but live guided and strengthened by the Spirit to live and do the good works God has for us . Hallelujah !
