Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott - Glittertind

Vår Gud han er så fast ei borg

Han er vårt skjold og verje

Han hjelper oss i naud og sorg

Når Styggen her vil herje

Den Gamle-Erik er

På felttog med sin hær

Stor makt og list har han

Ein grufull pansermann!

På jorda finst ei maken!

Vår eiga makt er altfor svak

Mot Styggen vil me tape

Men Gud har reist vår vonde sak

Så Fanden fekk ei skrape!

Kven eig den beste list?

Han heiter Jesus Krist!

Ein høvding er vår mann

I kampen vinn han fram:

Vår Frelsar fremst må sigre!

Om verda full av djevlar var

Ein ormegard i sinne

Me ingen angst i hjarte bar

For Kristi sverd skal klinge!

Om fyrsten for slik jord

På folkehat vert stor:

— Me ler så godt me kan

Han er ein dauddømd mann!

Eit ord vil honom felle!

Og Ordet står til domedag

Til agg for djevelpakket!

Vår Frelsar kjem i siste slag

Og Nåda kan me takke!

Om Fanden tek vårt liv

Gods, ære, born og viv:

Då har vår Herre talt

Med Ordet gav Han alt!

Guds rike vårt skal vere!

Guds rike vårt skal vere!

Our God he is so firm a castle

He is our shield and guardian

He helps us in need and sorrow

When the Ugly here will ravage

The Old Erik is

On a campaign with his army

He has great power and cunning

A gruesome armor man!

There is no match on earth!

Our own power is far too weak

Against Styggen we will lose

But God has raised up our evil cause

So the devil got a scratch!

Who owns the best list?

His name is Jesus Christ!

A chief is our man

In the fight he wins:

Our Savior must first prevail!

If the world was full of devils

Ein ormegard i sinne

With no anxiety in the heart bar

For the sword of Christ must ring!

About the prince of such land

On popular hatred host great:

- We laugh as best we can

He is a doomed man!

One word will fall on him!

And the Word stands for doomsday

To agg for the devil-packed!

Our Savior comes at the last blow

And Grace can thank me!

If the Devil takes our lives

Estate, honor, children and wife:

Then our Lord has spoken

With the Word He gave everything!

Our kingdom of God shall be!

Our kingdom of God shall be!
