a mighty fortress
most north american lutheran churches have not historically used either the hedge or carlyle translations. traditionally, the most commonly used translation in lutheran congregations is a composite translation from the 1868 "pennsylvania lutheran church book" ("a mighty fortress is our god, a trusty shield and weapon"). in more recent years a new translation completed for the 1978 "lutheran book of worship" ("a mighty fortress is our god, a sword and shield victorious") has also gained significant popularity.
