A Mighty Fortress Is Our God chords
Martin Luther 1529 "Ein' Feste Burg"

C    G Em  Am D7 G  Am Em F  C Am Dm G7 C
A mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing;
C     G  Em Am D7 G   Am Em F  C  Am Dm G7 C
Our helper He, amid the flood, of mortal ills prevailing:
C     Am G D7  G  C  G  C F  G7 Am
For still our ancient foe, doth seek to work us woe;
E  Am  E  Am  D7 G   F     C7  A Dm E
His craft and power are great, and, armed with cruel hate,
Am Em  F C  Am Dm G7 C
On earth is not his equ al.

C     G  Em Am    D7 G   Am Em  F  C   Am Dm G7 C
Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing;
C      G   Em Am D7 G   Am Em F C   Am Dm G7 C
Were not the right Man on our side, the Man of God's own choosing:
C    Am G  D7 G  C   G C  F G7 Am
Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He;
E  Am E Am D7 G   F    C7 A  Dm E
Lord Sabaoth, His Name, from age to age the same,
Am Em F  C  Am Dm G7 C
And He must win the bat tle.

C        G   Em  Am D7 G    Am   Em  F  C Am Dm G7 C
And though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to un do  us,
C      G   Em Am D7  G    Am Em  F C Am  Dm G7  C
We will not fear, for God hath willed, His truth to triumph through us:
C     Am G  D7  G   C G  C  F  G7 Am
The prince of darkness grim, we tremble not of him
E  Am  E Am D7 G  F    C7 A  Dm E
His rage we can endure, for lo, his doom is sure,
Am Em F  C  Am  Dm G7 C
One little word shall fell him.

C     G  Em Am  D7 G    Am Em   F C   Am Dm G7 C
That word above all earthly powers, no thanks to them, abide  th;
C     G  Em Am  D7 G   Am   Em F  C  Am Dm G7 C
The Spirit and the gifts are ours, through Him Who with us side th:
C     Am G  D7 G  C  G C  F  G7 Am
Let goods and kindred go, this mortal life al so;
E  Am E Am  D7 G   F      C7 A Dm E
The body they may kill: God's truth abideth still,
Am Em F  C Am Dm G7 C
His kingdom is for ev  er.
