The Assurance of God’s Saving Work

To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.

20 

May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble;

May the name of the God of Jacob defend you;

2 

May He send you help from the sanctuary,

And strengthen you out of Zion;

3 

May He remember all your offerings,

And accept your burnt sacrifice. Selah

4 

May He grant you according to your heart’s desire,

And fulfill all your purpose.

5 

We will rejoice in your salvation,

And in the name of our God we will set up our banners!

May the Lord fulfill all your petitions.

6 

Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed;

He will answer him from His holy heaven

With the saving strength of His right hand.

7 

Some trust in chariots, and some in horses;

But we will remember the name of the Lord our God.

8 

They have bowed down and fallen;

But we have risen and stand upright.

9 

Save, Lord!

May the King answer us when we call.
