[Verse 1:]
Like a mighty fortress, He is our God
Like a mighty fortress, He is our God
When enemies surround us, rising like a flood
They break into pieces, swallowed in dust
[Chorus:]
He rejoices
He rejoices over us
[Verse 2:]
Like a mighty warrior, He is our God
Like a mighty warrior, He is our God
His voice is like a thunder rolling through the land
He's Lion of Judah us, breaking off the fear of man
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
Upon the Rock of revelation
We're dancing now, we're dancing now
No enemy could ever shake us
We're dancing now, we're dancing now
(We dance cause)
