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.

Psalm 20
For the music leader. A psalm of David.
1I pray that the LORD answers you
whenever you are in trouble.
Let the name of Jacob’s God protect you.
2Let God send help to you from the sanctuary
and support you from Zion.
3Let God recall your many grain offerings;
let him savor your entirely burned offerings. Selah
4Let God grant what is in your heart
and fulfill all your plans.
5Then we will rejoice that you’ve been helped.
We will fly our flags in the name of our God.
Let the LORD fulfill all your requests!
6Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed one;
God answers his anointed one
from his heavenly sanctuary,
answering with mighty acts of salvation
achieved by his strong hand.
7Some people trust in chariots, others in horses;
but we praise the LORD’s name.
8They will collapse and fall,
but we will stand up straight and strong.
9 LORD, save the king!
Let him answer us when we cry out!
