... we rise up and stand firm

Psalm 20 

May the LORD answer you when you are in distress;

may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.

May he send you help from the sanctuary

and grant you support from Zion.

May he remember all your sacrifices

and accept your burnt offerings.

May he give you the desire of your heart

and make all your plans succeed. 

May we shout for joy over your victory

And lift up banners in the name of our God.

May the LORD grant all your requests. 

Now this I know:

The LORD gives victory to his anointed.

He answers him from his heavenly sanctuary

with the victorious power of his right hand.

Some trust in chariots and some in horses.

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

They are brought to their knees and fail, 

But we rise up and stand firm.

LORD give victory to the king!

Answer us when we call. 

Psalm 20: 1 – 9 (NIV)
