In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah. We have a strong city, God makes salvation it's walls and ramparts. Open the gates that the righteous nation may enter. the nation that keeps faith. You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trusts in You.
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.
May we always remember - in times of joy and times of grief - that HE is ever with us...All the praise be to God...Thankyou Martin
Listening now during the Russian Ukraine crisis. Psalm 46:1 "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in time of trouble."
Very Present ❤
Amen.
Outstanding! Thank you for sharing.
I build my faith on solid ground always
In that day this song will be
sung in the land of Judah.
We have a strong city,
God makes salvation
it's walls and ramparts.
Open the gates
that the righteous nation
may enter.
the nation that keeps faith.
You will keep in perfect peace
him whose mind is steadfast,
because he trusts in You.
Thank you for the uploads Martijn! Good to hear worship in a church again. Also nice to see a fellow Frisian.
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.
This is a Lutheran hymn but the lyrics are not those sung in the Lutheran church.
Well, Luther wrote it yes, but what christian does not know it .😊
Can you supply the lyrics sung in Lutheran churches?
