Psal. XX.
The Lord in thy afflictions day
Give eare when thou dost pray.
The Name of Iacob's God defend,
On whom thy hopes depend.
Give eare when thou dost pray.
32
On whom thy hopes depend.
Help from His Sanctuary send,
And strength from Sion lend.
Thy Gifts in His remembrance prize;
Accept thy sacrifice.
And strength from Sion lend.
Thy Gifts in His remembrance prize;
Accept thy sacrifice.
May He, who comforts doth inspire,
Grant thee thy heart's desire:
Make thee enjoy thy wishes still;
Thy counsailes all fulfill.
Grant thee thy heart's desire:
Make thee enjoy thy wishes still;
Thy counsailes all fulfill.
With thankfull and triumphant voyce
We in Thy help rejoyce:
And in Thy Name our banners reare,
Who wilt thy servants heare.
We in Thy help rejoyce:
And in Thy Name our banners reare,
Who wilt thy servants heare.
Now know I, God, who power gave,
Doth His Annointed save.
He heares from Heav'n, and His right hand
Makes him in safety stand.
Doth His Annointed save.
He heares from Heav'n, and His right hand
Makes him in safety stand.
Some in their armed Chariots force,
Some put their trust in horse:
But we remember will the Lord,
Whose Name doth strength afford.
Some put their trust in horse:
But we remember will the Lord,
Whose Name doth strength afford.
They are brought down, and fall'n in war
We rays'd in triumph are.
O save us Lord, great Heavens King,
Heare those requests we bring.
We rays'd in triumph are.
33
Heare those requests we bring.
