A Mighty Fortress is our God (Hymn 384)

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 pow’r 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. Amen

Amazing Grace! How Sweet the Sound (Hymn 405)

Amazing grace! How sweet the sound That saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found Was blind, but now I see

I come to the garden alone While the dew is still on the roses And the voice I hear, falling on my ear The Son of God discloses

And He walks with me, and He talks with me And He tells me I am His own And the joy we share as we tarry there None other has ever known
