SCRIPTURE FOR THE WEEK…
“Come and see the works of the LORD, the desolations he has brought on the earth. He makes wars cease to the ends of the earth; he breaks the bow and shatters the spear, he burns the shields with fire. ‘Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.’ The LORD Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress.” Psalm 46:8-11 (NIV)

SONG TEXT FOR THE WEEK…
A Mighty Fortress Is Our God
by Martin Luther, arr. by Tommy Walker
© 1996 Doulos Music

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

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

A mighty fortress
A mighty fortress is our God
A mighty fortress
A mighty fortress is our God
A mighty fortress
A mighty fortress is our God
Our God
