Praise the Lord, our Refuge, Help and Rock

Psalm 20

1 May the LORD answer you when you are in distress;

may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

2 May he send you help from the sanctuary

and grant you support from Zion.

3 May he remember all your sacrifices

and accept your burnt offerings. Selah

4 May he give you the desire of your heart

and make all your plans succeed.

5 We will shout for joy when you are victorious

and will lift up our banners in the name of our God.

May the LORD grant all your requests.

6 Now I know that the LORD saves his anointed;

he answers him from his holy heaven

with the saving power of his right hand.

7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses,

but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.

8 They are brought to their knees and fall,

but we rise up and stand firm.

9 O LORD, save the king!

Answer us when we call!

Praise be to God who hears the prayers of mere man!
Praise be to God who answers us when we are in distress!
Praise be to God who send protection, help and support!
Praise be to God who remembers and accepts our sacrifices!
Praise be to God who grants us the desires of our hearts!
Praise be to God who makes us plans succeed!
Praise be to God who allows us to be His Anointed!
Praise be to God whose Name we put our trust on!

May all praise, glory and honour be unto you forever and ever!
