Psalm 20d
To the tune of And Can It Be
The Lord reply in your distress;
May Jacob’s God defend you then.
And from His place of holiness
Both strength and help from Zion send.
May He accept your sacrifice,
And all your off’rings bear in mind.
May He grant all your heart’s delights,
Fulfilling all you have designed.
In Your salvation we’ll rejoice,
In our God’s name our banners raise;
May the LORD always hear your voice,
Grant all you ask through all your days.
I know now that the Lord defends
And saves His own anointed king.
From holy heav’n He answer sends;
His right hand saving pow’r will bring.
A trust in chariots some proclaim,
And some in horses take their pride;
But we will boast and praise this Name:
The LORD our God, and none beside.
While we are raised and upright stand,
Our foes are made to bow and fall.
O save the king, Lord, by Your hand,
And answer us the day we call.
