Ein feste burg est unser Gott.

That is all.

With liberty and justice for all.

You know, for a thank-you note I once made up the olde German duppelentendre,
"Ohne Messer isst man nicht."
(Without knives one cannot eat) /
"Ohne Messer ist Mann nicht."
(Without knives man is nothing)

....which makes me wonder for the first time whether Ein Feste Burg really *is* our god, or rather is *eating* our god....
