Rendition of Psalm 20
May the Lord hear you And answer with strong wings Beating on gale winds. May your help come Even before the need is raised— Swift as hunting hawks, fleet as falcons . May he send you every help you ask, Bigger than heart hoped, dream guessed, Or mind ever tried. Then we will watch you and sing Glad, great-hearted songs. Then we will see that our God Knows how to save. We’ll know the silent sky Can speak, and holy heaven Ring like struck bells. Some laugh at our long odds And hope in what their hands can touch, But we brim and run over Even when we raise Empty hands the highest. Lord, we rise and wait at hopefall For the sound of hushed wings. Hear us.
