From the recording Sharing Christ
As the title says, this song was built upon Psalm 20, adding more modern language for you the listener. This is a great one to sing along with! It is edifying because it is scripture, and let's you know it IS God's will to answer you, defend you, send you help, strengthen you, remember all you've done out of love for Him, grant you your heart's desires, and fulfill your purpose ! Wow... all of that taken from one Psalm! It lets us see right into His heart for us, doesn't it? Knowing He saves and answers us enables us to be able to STAND UPRIGHT! We can trust Him! Hallelujah!
Lyrics
May the Lord answer you
In the day of trouble
May the Name of the God-of- Jacob defend you
May He send you help from the Sanctuary
And strengthen you out of Zion
May He remember all your offerings
And accept all the good things that you have done
May He grant you according to your heart’s desire
And fulfill all of your purpose
We will rejoice in your salvation
And in His Name, We will set up our banners
May the Lord fulfill all your petitions
And grant you your heart’s desires
And purposes
Save, Lord
Save, Lord
Save, Lord
Save, Lord
May the King answer us when we call
May the King answer us when we call
May the King answer us when we call
Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed
He will answer him from His holy heaven
Yes, I know that the Lord saves His anointed
He will answer him from His holy heaven
With the saving strength of His right hand
He saves and answers His Anointed Ones
Some trust in chariots
And some in horses
But we’ll trust in the Name of our God
Some trust in chariots
And some in horses
But we’ll trust in the Name of our God
They have bowed down
They have fallen
But WE have risen
And WE UPRIGHTLY
STAND
Save, Lord
Save, Lord
Save, Lord
Save, Lord
May the King answer us when we call
May the King answer us when we call
May the King answer us when we call
