Song Lyrics

A Mighty Fortress is Our God

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

 

A mighty fortress, a mighty fortress is our God

A mighty fortress, a mighty fortress is our God

 

That word above all earthly pow’rs,

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

 

King of Heaven

Jesus, let Your kingdom come here,

Let Your will be done here in us.

Jesus, there is no one greater,

You alone are Savior.

Show the world Your love.

 

King of heaven, come down.

King of heaven, come now.

Let Your glory reign

Shining like the day,

King of heaven, come.

 

King of heaven rise up.

Who can stand against us?

You are strong to save,

In Your mighty name,

King of heaven, come.

 

We are children of Your mercy,

Rescued for Your glory, we cry

“Jesus, set our hearts towards You,

That every eye would see You lifted high!”

 

King of heaven, come.

King of heaven, come.

 

By Faith

By faith we see the hand of God

In the light of creation’s grand design

In the lives of those

who prove His faithfulness

Who walk by faith and not by sight

 

By faith our fathers roamed the earth

With the power of His promise in their hearts

Of a holy city built by God’s own hand

A place where peace and justice reign

 

We will stand as children of the promise

We will fix our eyes on Him our soul’s reward

Till the race is finished and the work is done

We’ll walk by faith and not by sight

 

By faith the prophets saw a day

When the longed‐for Messiah would appear

With the power to break

the chains of sin and death

And rise triumphant from the grave

 

By faith the church was called to go

In the power of the Spirit to the lost

To deliver captives and to preach good news

In every corner of the earth

 

We will stand as children of the promise

We will fix our eyes on Him our soul’s reward

Till the race is finished and the work is done

We’ll walk by faith and not by sight

 

By faith this mountain shall be moved

And the power of the gospel shall prevail

For we know in Christ all things are possible

For all who call upon His name

 

How Firm a Foundation

How firm a foundation ye saints of the Lord

Is laid for your faith in His excellent Word!

What more can He say

than to you He hath said

To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled.

 

Fear not, I am with thee; O be not dismayed

For I am thy God, and will still give thee aid

I’ll strengthen thee help thee

and cause thee to stand

Upheld by My righteous omnipotent hand.

 

When through the deep waters

I call thee to go,

The rivers of woe shall not thee overflow.

For I will be with thee thy troubles to bless

And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.

 

When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,

My grace all sufficient shall be thy supply

The flame shall not hurt thee I only design

Thy dross to consume and thy gold to refine

 

The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose

I will not, I will not desert to its foes:

That soul, though all hell

should endeavor to shake

I’ll never, no never no never forsake
