1 Jehovah hear thee in the day
When trouble He doth send;
And let the name of Jacob's God
From every ill defend.
2 O let Him help thee from above,
From out His temple court;
From Zion, His own holy hill,
O let Him send support.

3 Let Him remember all thy gifts,
Accept thy sacrifice,
4 Grant thee thine heart's wish, and fulfill
Thy thoughts and counsel wise.
5 In thy salvation we will joy;
In our God's name we will
Set up our banners; and the LORD
All thy requests fulfill.

6 Now know I that the LORD doth save
His own anointed king;
He'll hear him from His holy heav'n;
His right hand strength shall bring.
7 In chariots some put confidence;
Some horses trust upon;
But we remember will the name
Of our LORD God alone.

8 We rise and upright stand, when they
Are made to bow and fall.
9 Deliver, LORD, and let the king
Give answer when we call.
