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
To the director: A song 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 Holy Place.
May he support you from Zion.
3May he remember all the gifts you have offered.
May he accept all your sacrifices. Selah
4May he give you what you really want.
May he make all your plans successful.
5We will celebrate when he helps you.
We will praise the name of God.
May the Lord give you everything you ask for.
6Now I know the Lord helps his chosen king.
From his holy heaven he answered.
With his great power he saved him.
7Some give the credit for victory to their chariots and soldiers,
but we honor the Lord our God.
8They fall in battle, totally defeated,
but we survive and stand strong!
9Lord, save the king!
Answer us when we call to you for help.
