My confidence is not my own
It rests on something better
A solid rock, my cornerstone
He is true forever

So should my eyes of faith grow dim
And tho my trust may waver
I cast my weary soul again
On Jesus Christ my Savior

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

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

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

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

He will win the battle
I don’t have to fight
Jesus Christ the champion
Standing by my side

He will win the battle
I don’t have to fight
Jesus Christ the champion
Standing by my side

He will win the battle
I don’t have to fight
Jesus Christ the champion
Standing by my side

He will win the battle
I don’t have to fight
Jesus Christ the champion
Standing by my side

He will win the battle
I don’t have to fight
Jesus Christ the champion
Standing by my side

He will win the battle
I don’t have to fight
Jesus Christ the champion
Standing by my side

And on the day death comes for me
This will be my confession
There stands beyond eternity
Christ Jesus my protector
He calls me to his presence

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

He will win the battle
I don’t have to fight
Jesus Christ the champion
Standing by my side
