RETURN TO SLIDE SHOW
inspired to a literal interpretation of Martin Luther’s “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God,” I designed the centerpiece of this work to be a bulwark of type. Every letter is constructed to be bound together by at least one pixel of its adjoining letters so that the verses’ structure is solid and impenetrable yet still allows the light of truth to beam through.

Martin Luther, 1529
Translated by Frederick H. Hedge, 1853
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 though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us,
we will not fear, for God hath willed his truth to triumph through 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 through 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.
“God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.” —Psalm 46:1
