Hedge served congregations in Maine, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts, and taught church history at Harvard Divinity School and German literature at Harvard University A respected transcendentalist and a famous German scholar, he published the monumental Prose Writers of Germany His original hymns and translations were published in Hymns for the Church of Christ , which he compiled with F.
Dan Huntington. He is remembered primarily for his translation of Luther's famous hymn. Stanzas of the original text were inspired by Psalm 46; stanza 4 arose directly from Luther's persecution experience. The text expresses trust in God's protection amidst the battle that Christians wage against the devil.
The closing line of the text provides much comfort: "God's truth abideth still; his kingdom is forever! Many stories have been relayed about its use. As you can see, this is a hymn close to the hearts of Protestants and Lutherans, a source of assurance in times of duress and persecution. The text is not restricted, however, to times of actual physical battles. In any time of need, when we do battle with the forces of evil, God is our fortress to hide us and protect us, and the Word that endures forever will fight for us.
The most commonly used English version is a translation by Frederick H. Hedge in The text is full of battle imagery; this, coupled with the historic use of the hymn in actual battles, can be troubling for Christians who struggle with making sense of warfare.
There is a case for arguing that we need to see this hymn in light of the history in which it was written, when Christians were fighting to defend their faith.
However, this text also needs to be understood in terms of a spiritual struggle against the powers of darkness. Whether we believe in very real, physical demons and tempters, or less concrete forces, we are in the midst of a very real war between good and evil.
Seerveld suggests having a choir perform the rhythmic setting first, since it will most likely seem very foreign to your congregation. Another option is to use the isometric structure, but swing the quarter notes, dotting every first and third beat. However, since the subject matter is much broader than any one historic event, it can be sung any time during the year when a hymn of assurance is needed. Alternative Harmonizations: Innes, John.
