PSALM 20
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1 JEHOVAH hear thee in the day
when trouble he doth send:
And let the name of Jacob's God
thee from all ill defend.
2O let him help send from above,
out of his sanctuary:
From Sion, his own holy hill,
let him give strength to thee.
3Let him remember all thy gifts,
accept thy sacrifice:
4Grant thee thine heart's wish, and fulfil
thy thoughts and counsel wise.
5In thy salvation we will joy;
in our God's name we will
Display our banners: and the Lord
thy prayers all fulfil.
6Now know I God his king doth save:
he from his holy heav'n
Will hear him, with the saving strength
by his own right hand giv'n.
7In chariots some put confidence,
some horses trust upon:
But we remember will the name
of our Lord God alone.
8We rise, and upright stand, when they
are bowed down, and fall.
9Deliver, Lord; and let the King
us hear, when we do call.

Psalms 20
20
A Prayer for the King
For the director of music. A psalm of David.
1May the Lord answer you in times of trouble.
May the God of Jacob protect you.
2May he send you help from his Temple
and support you from Mount Zion.
3May he remember all your offerings
and accept all your sacrifices.Selah
4May he give you what you want
and make all your plans succeed,
5and we will shout for joy when you succeed,
and we will raise a flag in the name of our God.
May the Lord give you all that you ask for.
6Now I know the Lord helps his appointed king.
He answers him from his holy heaven
and saves him with his strong right hand.
7Some trust in chariots, others in horses,
but we trust the Lord our God.
8They are overwhelmed and defeated,
but we march forward and win.
9Lord, save the king!
Answer us when we call for help.
