mountains tremble with its
tumult.

kingdoms shake; God speaks,
104. and the earth melts away.

110. A mighty fortress is our God
A sword and shield victorious
He breaks the cruel
oppressor’s rod
And wins salvation glorious
111. The old satanic foe has
sworn to work us woe
With craft and dreadful might
He arms himself to fight
On earth he has no equal
112. No strength of ours
can match his might!
We would be lost, rejected.
But now a champion
comes to fight
whom God himself elected
113. You ask who this may be?
The Lord of hosts is he!
Christ Jesus, Mighty Lord,
God’s only Son, adored.
He holds the field victorious.
114. Though hordes of devils fill the land
all threat’ning to devour us,
we tremble not,
unmoved we stand;
they cannot overpow’r us.
115. Let this world’s tyrant rage;
in battle we’ll engage!
His might is doomed to fail;
God’s judgment must prevail!
One little word subdues him.
116. God’s word forever shall abide
No thanks to foes, who fear it
For God Himself fights by our side
With weapons of the Spirit
117. Were they to take our house
Goods, honor, child or spouse
Though life be wrenched away
They cannot win the day
The kingdom’s ours forever!

p.154 ELW
Lamb of God,
you take away the sin of the world;
grant us peace, grant us peace.
139. The church's one foundation
is Jesus Christ, her Lord;
she is his new creation
by water and the word.
From heav'n he came
and sought her
to be his holy bride;
with his own blood he bought her,
and for her life he died.
140. Elect from ev'ry nation,
yet one o'er all the earth;
her charter of salvation
one Lord, one faith, one birth;
one holy name she blesses,
partakes one holy food,
and to one hope she presses
with ev'ry grace endued.
141. Though with a scornful wonder
this world sees her oppressed,
by schisms rent asunder,
by heresies distressed,
yet saints their watch are keeping;
their cry goes up: "How long?"
and soon the night of weeping
shall be the morn of song.
142. Through toil and tribulation
and tumult of her war,
she waits the consummation
of peace forevermore;
till with the vision glorious
her longing eyes are blest,
and the great church victorious
shall be the church at rest.
143. Yet she on earth has union
with God, the Three in One,
and mystic sweet communion
with those whose rest is won.
Oh, blessed heav'nly chorus!
Lord, save us by your grace,
that we, like saints before us,
may see you face to face.
145. Praise to the Lord the Almighty
