CGEmAmD7GAmEmFCAmDmG7CA mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing;
CGEmAmD7GAmEmFCAmDmG7C
Our helper He, amid the flood, of mortal ills prevailing:
CAmGD7GCGCFG7Am
For still our ancient foe, doth seek to work us woe;
EAmEAmD7GFC7ADmE
His craft and power are great, and, armed with cruel hate,
AmEmFCAmDmG7C
On earth is not his equ al.
CGEmAmD7GAmEmFCAmDmG7C
Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing;

His kingdom is for ev er.
