Psalm 21A: Psalm 21:1-6

Noel, C.M.D. [F]

1. 1 The king in Thy great strength, O LORD,
        Shall very joyful be;
And in Thy saving help he shall
        Rejoice most fervently.
2 For Thou upon him has bestowed
        All that his heart would have;
And Thou from him didst not withhold
        Whate'er his lips did crave.

2. 3 For Thou wilt meet him with Thy gifts
        Of blessings manifold,
And Thou hast set upon his head
        A crown of purest gold.
4 When he requested life of Thee,
        Thou life to him didst give;
Such length of days Thou gavest him
        He evermore should live.

3. 5 In Thy salvation he is great,
        And glorified is he;
And Thou upon him has bestowed
        Most glorious majesty.
6 For Thou wilt ever set on him
        The blessings of Thy grace,
And Thou wilt cause him to be filled
        With joy before Thy face.
