Psalm 20

We like this to the tune: Retreat LM * often used  to sing "From Every Stormy Wind"

1.1 The LORD in your distress attend;
Let Jacob's God exalt you still;
2 Help from the holy temple send
And strengthen you from Zion's hill.
2.3 May He your sacrifice regard,
And all your off'rings bear in mind
May He your heart's desire reward,
Fulfilling all you have designed.
3.5 In your salvation we'll rejoice,
In our God's name our banners raise.
4 O may Jehovah hear your voice,
Grant all you ask through all your days.
4.6 I know now that the LORD defends
And saves His own anointed king.
From holy heav'n He answer sends;
His right hand saving power will bring.
5.7 In chariots some boast confidence,
And on their horses some rely;
But we boast only one defense,
The name of God, the LORD Most High.
6.8 While we are raised and upright stand,
Our foes are made to bow and fall.
9 O save the king, LORD, by Your hand,
And answer us the day we call.

6 I know now that the LORD defends
And saves His own anointed king.

We could also sing -

I know now that the LORD defends
And saves His own messiah king.
