Because You gave him strength, O Lord,
The king rejoices and he’s pleased.
And You made him victorious,
His heart’s desire He received.
You have answered his request,
Many blessings You’ve bestowed.
You set a crown of gold upon his head,
With a long lasting life, what love You showed.
Because of your help, his glory is great,
And his fame is widely known.
For You Lord are with him forever,
He’s filled with joy for he’s never alone.
The king puts his trust in the Lord Almighty,
And because the Lord remains true.
He remains secure, He’ll never be moved,
And his enemies he’ll pursue.
All who hate him will be captured,
Be destroyed like a roaring fire.
In His anger the Lord will devour them,
And force them into the mire.
Their descendants will not survive,
The king will kill them, indeed.
They plot against him, they make their plans,
But they will not succeed.
And they’ll turn and run away,
They know that this is the hour.
That the Lord has shown His strength,
We sing praises for Your power.
