The LORD Hear Thee

1 The LORD hear thee in trouble's day,
The name of Israel's God defend thee;
From Zion light and strength display,
Help from the sanctuary send thee!

2 Regard thy sacrifice for sin,
Accept the gifts by thee presented;
Grant thee thy heart's desire to win,
And be thy thoughts by grace prevented.

3 We triumph, LORD! in Thy great name,
Rejoicing in Thy free salvation;
The LORD regard Messiah's claim,
The LORD fulfils thy meditation.

4 Now know I that the God of grace,
Help on His own anointed sends;
Hearing him from His dwelling place,
And him with His right arm defends.

5 In chariots some and horses rest
Their safety, when the foe assails;
The Name we call on when oppressed,
Is His who never His people fails!

6 We prosper, But with shame they fall,
We stand, but they are backwards driven;
Save, LORD! and hear us when we call,
Hear us, O LORD! Thou King of Heaven.
