God Is Our Fortress and Our Rock
Author: Martin Luther; Michael A. Perry Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #468 (1987) Meter: 8.7.8.7.5.5.5.6.7 Topics: Commitment & Dedication; Enemies & Persecution; Reformation; Redemption; Assurance; Commitment & Dedication; Enemies & Persecution; Kingdom; Pilgrimage & Conflct; Redemption; Reformation; Refuge; Victory; Word of God Lyrics: 1 God is our fortress and our rock,
our mighty help in danger;
he shields us from the battle's shock
and thwarts the devil's anger;
for still the prince of night
prolongs evil's fight;
he uses all skill
to work his wicked will;
no earthly force is like him.
2 Our hope is fixed on Christ alone,
the Man of God's own choosing;
without him nothing can be won
and fighting must be losing;
so let the powers accursed
come try do their worst;
Christ Jesus shall ride
to battle at our side,
and he shall have the victory.
3 The word of God will not be slow
while demon hordes surround us,
though evil strike its cruelest blow
and death and hell confound us:
for though we meet distress,
lose all we possess;
those planning our ill
may ravage, wreck, or kill;
God's kingdom is immortal!
Scripture: Psalm 46 Languages: English Tune Title: EIN FESTE BURG (RHYTHMIC)
God Is Our Fortress and Our Rock
A Mighty Fortress Is Our God
Author: Martin Luther; Frederick Henry Hedge Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #469 (1987) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Topics: Commitment & Dedication; Deliverance; Enemies & Persecution; Reformation; Redemption; Assurance; Commitment & Dedication; Deliverance; Enemies & Persecution; Kingdom; Pilgrimage & Conflct; Redemption; Reformation; Refuge; Victory; Word of God Lyrics: 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
does 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.
You 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 has 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!
Scripture: Romans 8:35-39 Languages: English Tune Title: EIN FESTE BURG (ISORHYTHMIC)

From all that pursue me O save and defend;
Lest they like a lion should rend me at will,
while no one is near me their raging to still.
2 When wronged without cause I have kindness returned;
But if I my neighbor maltreated and spurned,
My soul let the enemy seize for his prey,
My life and my honor in dust let him lay.
3 O Lord, in Thy wrath stay the rage of my foes;
Awake, and Thy judgment ordained interpose.
Let peoples surround Thee and wait at Thy feet,
While o'er them for judgment Thou takest Thy seat.
4 All nations of men shall be judged by the Lord;
To me, O Jehovah, just judgment accord,
As faithful and righteous in life I have been,
And ever integrity cherished within.
5 Establish the righteous, let evil depart,
For God Who is just tries the tho'ts of the heart.
In God for defense I have placed all my trust;
The upright He saves and He judges the just.
6 The Lord with the wicked is wroth every day,
And if they repent not is ready to slay;
By manifold ruin for others prepared
They surely at last shall themselves be ensnared.
7 Because He is righteous His praise I will sing,
Thanksgiving and honor to Him I will bring,
Will sing to the Lord on Whose grace I rely,
Extolling the Name of Jehovah Most High. Scripture: Psalm 7 Languages: English Tune Title: PAULINA

I call upon Thy Name;
O save me in Thy righteousness,
Nor let me suffer shame.
2 Bow down Thy ear to my request,
And swift deliverance send;
Be Thou to me a rock of strength,
A fortress to defend.
3 Since Thou my rock and fortress art,
My Leader be, and Guide;
From all temptation rescue me,
Thou dost my strength abide.
4 To Thee my spirit I commend;
Redemption is with Thee,
O Thou Jehovah, God of truth,
Who hast delivered me.
5 I hate all those that love the false,
My trust is in the Lord;
I will be glad, and joyfully
Thy mercy will record.
6 For my affliction Thou hast seen,
And known my many woes;
Thou hast not let me be enslaved,
But freed me from my foes.
7 Show mercy, Lord, to me distressed,
And send my soul relief,
My life is spent with bitterness,
My strength consumed with grief.
8 I mourn and fail because of sin,
Friends turn in dread away;
Reproached am I and terrified,
While foes conspire to slay.
9 But, Lord, in Thee is all my trust,
Thou art my God, I cried;
My life, my times are in Thy hand,
I in Thy strength confide.
10 From all that persecute my soul
Deliverance I crave;
O smile upon Thy servant, Lord,
And in Thy mercy save.
11 Let me not be ashamed, O Lord,
I plead with Thee to save;
But let the wicked be ashamed,
And silent in the grave.
12 Yea, let their lips henceforth be mute
Who words of falsehood seek,
The lips which with contempt and pride
Against the righteous speak.
