Ps.20:6a Now know I that the Lord helpeth his Anointed, and will hear him from his holy heaven.
Ps.20:7 Some put their trust in chariots, and some in horses : but we will remember the Name of the Lord our God.
King of kings!
Ps.21:7 And why? because the King putteth his trust in the Lord : and in the mercy of the most Highest he shall not miscarry.
Ps.21:5b Glory and great worship shalt thou lay upon him.
Ps.21:3 For thou shalt prevent him with the blessings of goodness : and shalt set a crown of pure gold upon his head.
Ps.21:1b Exceeding glad shall he be of thy salvation.
Amen.
