1 1 The Father answer thee

in day's adversity.

The name of the God of Jacob

on a high place set thee.

<chorus>

2 Send help from sanct'rary,

from Zion support thee,

3 remember all your offerings,

consume your burnt off'ring.

<selah>

2 4 The Lord to you impart

according to your heart,

and all your counsel He fulfill

that you may bear a part.

<chorus>

3 5 We'll sing in Thy saving,

and in our God's name dear

our banner high we are raising.

LORD fill all your desire!

<chorus>

4 6 I now know the LORD saves,

answers His Christ always

from heaven's holiness by His

mighty right hand to save.

<chorus>

5 7 These trust in chariots,

and these in horses' legs,

but we remind ourselves to trust

in the LORD our God's name.

<chorus>

6 8 They are brought down and fall,

but we rise and stand tall.

9 O Father save. Answer, O King,

in the day that we call.

<chorus>
