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 Verse 2 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 Verse 3 And tho' this world with devils filled Should threaten to undo us We will not fear for God hath willed His truth to triumph thru 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 Verse 4 That word above all earthly pow'rs No thanks to them abideth The Spirit and the gifts are ours Thru 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

I've been held by the Savior I've felt fire from above I've been down to the river I ain't the same a prodigal returned Chorus 1 All my hope is in Jesus Thank God that yesterday's gone (Yes) All my sins are forgiven (Oh I've) I've been washed by the blood (Come on and sing) Verse 2 I'm no stranger to prison I've worn shackles and chains But I've been freed and forgiven And I'm not going back I'll never be the same That's why I sing Misc 1 There's a kind of thing that just breaks a man Break him down to his knees God I've been broken more than a time or two Yes Lord then He picked me up and showed me What it means to be a man Come on and sing © 1939 Mrs. E.M.

O victory in Jesus My Savior forever He sought me and bought me With His redeeming blood He loved me ere I knew Him And all my love is due Him He plunged me to victory Beneath the cleansing flood Verse 1 I heard an old old story How a Savior came from glory How He gave His life on Calvary To save a wretch like me I heard about His groaning Of His precious blood's atoning Then I repented of my sins And won the victory Verse 2 I heard about His healing Of His cleansing pow'r revealing How He made the lame to walk again And caused the blind to see And then I cried dear Jesus Come and heal my broken spirit And somehow Jesus came and brought To me the victory Verse 3 I heard about a mansion He has built for me in glory And I heard about the streets of gold Beyond the crystal sea About the angels singing And the old redemption story And some sweet day I'll sing up there The song of victory |
