A Mighty Fortress Is Our God / Rock Of Ages / Victory In Jesus / Because He Lives

A mighty fortress is our God
A bullwark never failing
Our helper He amid the flood
Of mortal ills prevailing
Let goods and kindred go
This mortal life also
This body they may kill
God's truth abideth still
His kingdom is forever

Rock of ages cleft for me
Let me hide myself in thee
Let the water and the blood
From thy wounded side which flowed
Rock of ages cleft for me
Let me hide myself in thee

I heard an old, old story
How a Savior came from glory
How He gave His life on Calvary
To save a wretch like me
I heard about His groaning
Of His precious bloods atoning
Then I repented of my sin
And won the victory

Oh! Victory in Jesus
My Savior forever
He sought me and bought me
With His redeeming blood
He loved me e'ver I knew Him
And all my love is due Him
He plunged me to victory
Beneath the cleansing flood

Because He lives I can face tomorrow
Because He lives all fear is gone
Because I know, I know He holds the future
And life is worth the living just because He lives
Just because He lives
Just because He lives
Just because He lives
