Psalm XX. (Book 20)

Lowath Tune.

〈♫〉〈♫〉THe Lord now hear thee gra--cious-ly, 〈♫〉〈♫〉in this di---stress-ful day: 〈♫〉〈♫〉The name of Ja cob's migh-ty God 〈♫〉〈♫〉be thy de--fence and stay. [verse 2] And from the sanctuary send assistance in thy need: And out of Sion strengthen thee, and make thee strong indeed. [verse 3] Remember all the offerings which thou hast brought entire: And now accept the sacrifice which thou hast made by fire.

[verse 4] Thy hearts desire he'll grant to thee, and all thy counsels bless: And make them be accomplished, with sutable success. [verse 5] Lord, we rejoyce in thy defence, and in thy name and aid Of our great God our banners shall be cheerfully displaid. The Lord, fulfill all thy desire, and grant what thou dost crave: [verse 6] And now I know that God most high doth his anointed save. And he will hear him graciously from his most holy heav'n, With saving strength of his right hand, which shall to him be given. [verse 7] Some trust in chariots, some in horse, but we will think upon The name of thee the Lord our God, and trust to that alone. [verse 8] Lo, we do rise and stand upright, but they bow down and fall. [verse 9] Save, Lord, and let our heavenly king now hear us when we call.
