One Little Word Shall Fell Him
I love Martin Luther’s powerful song, A Mighty Fortress, because it portrays Christ as a victor. But the third verse has a line that I want your opinion on. What is the “little word” that defeats Satan? Who speaks it?
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.
