For still our ancient foe, Forsworn to work us woe, With guile and dreadful might Is armed to wage the fight: On earth there is no equal. 2 If we in our own strength confide, Our striving turns to losing; the righteous one fights by our side, The one of God’s own choosing. You ask who this may be; Christ Jesus, it is he, The Lord of hosts by name. No other God we claim! None else can win the battle. 3 Through all the world with devils fill And threaten to devour us, We tremble not, we trust God's will: They cannot overpow'r us. Though Satan rant and rage, In fiercest war engage, This tyrant's doomed to fail; God's judgment must prevail! One little word shall triumph. 4 God's Word shall stand above the pow'rs, Shall end all their thanksgiving. The Spirit and the gifts are ours, For God with us is living. Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also; Though all of these be gone, They yet have nothing won. The kingdom's ours forever! --- 1 Castillo fuerte es nuestro Dios, defensa y buen escudo. Con su poder nos librará en todo trance agudo. Con furia y con afán acósanos Satán; por armas deja ver astucia y gran poder: cual él no hay en la tierra. 2 Nuestro valor es nada aquí; con él todo es perdido. Mas por nosotros luchará de Dios el escogido. Es nuestro Rey, Jesús, el que venció en la cruz, Señor y Salvador, y siendo el solo Dios, él triunfa en la batalla. 3 Y si demonios mil están prontos a devorarnos, no temeremos, porque Dios sabrá cómo ampararnos. ¡Que muestre su vigor Satán, y su furor! Dañarnos no podrá, pues condenado es ya por la palabra santa. 4 Esa palabra del Señor, que el mundo no apetece, por el Espíritu de Dios muy firme permanece. Nos pueden despojar de bienes, nombre, hogar, el cuerpo destruir, mas siempre ha de existir de Dios el reino eterno.

As we his people Meet to offer praise and prayer, May we find in fuller measure What it is in Christ we share: Here, as in the world around us, All our varied skills and arts Wait the coming of his Spirit Into open minds and hearts. 2 Here are symbols to remind us Of our lifelong need of grace; Here are table, font and pulpit; Here the cross has central place: Here in honesty of preaching, Here in silence as in speech, Here in newness and renewal God the Spirit comes to each. 3 Here our children find a welcome In the Shepherd's flock and fold; Here, as bread and wine are taken, Christ sustains us as of old: Here the servants of the Servant Seek in worship to explore What it means in daily living To believe and to adore. 4 Lord of all, of church and kingdom, In an age of change and doubt, Keep us faithful to the gospel, Help us work your purpose out: Here, in this day's dedication, All we have to give, receive; We who cannot live without you, We adore you! We believe!

Throughout the earth no rest is found, and falsehood's spirit wide has spread, and error boldly rears its head. 4 Lord Jesus, help, your Church uphold, for we are sluggish, thoughtless, cold. O prosper well your Word of grace and spread its truth in ev'ry place. 5 O keep us in your Word, we pray; the guile and rage of Satan stay. Oh, may your mercy never cease; give concord, patience, courage, peace. 6 A trusty weapon is your Word, the Church's armor, shield, and sword. O let us in its pow'r confide that we may seek no other guide. 7 O grant that in your holy Word we here may live and die, dear Lord; and when our journey's ending here, receive us into glory there.
