January 12, 2025 Preparation for Worship Time for Gathering Opening Hymn “A Mighty Fortress” 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 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 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 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 Amen!
