Psalter Number 121. God the Giver of Victory - Psalm 44
1. O God, we have heard, and our fathers have
told What wonders Thou didst in the great days of
old; The nations were crushed and expelled by Thy
hand, Cast out that Thy people might dwell in their
land. 2. They gained not the land by the edge of the
sword, Their own arm to them could no safety afford, But Thy right hand saved, and the light of Thy
face, Because of Thy favor and wonderful grace. 3. Command, and Thy word shall deliverance
bring, O God, to Thy chosen, for Thou art our King; Through Thee we will surely defeat all our
foes, Through Thy Name will triumph o'er those that
oppose. 4. No trust will I place in my strength to
defend, Nor yet on my sword as a safeguard depend; In Thee, Who hast saved us and put them to
shame, We boast all the day, ever praising Thy Name. |
