Couplet 1

My confidence is not my own
It rests on something better
My solid rock my cornerstone
He is true forever
So should my eyes of faith grow dim
And tho my faith may waver
I cast my weary soul again
On Jesus Christ my Savior

Refrain

Mighty fortress
You are for us
Our Emmanuel
King of Heaven
My defender
Lover of my soul

Couplet 2

When I face down my enemies
And Satan's schemes are present
I have someone who fights for me
He's the warrior of Heaven

Refrain

Mighty fortress
You are for us
Our Emmanuel
King of Heaven
My defender
Lover of my soul

Pont

He will win the battle
I don't have to fight
Jesus Christ the champion
Is standing by my side

Couplet 3

And on that day when death comes for me
This will be my confession
There stands beyond eternity
Christ Jesus my protector

Refrain

Mighty fortress
You are for us
Our Emmanuel
King of Heaven
My defender
Lover of my soul
