Psalms 21:1-7

¹“For the leader of the music. A psalm of David.” The king rejoiceth in thy strength, O LORD! Yea, he doth greatly exult in thy protection.

²Thou hast given him his heart's desire, And hast not denied him the request of his lips. Pause.

³Yea, thou hast met him with rich blessings, Thou hast placed a crown of pure gold upon his head.

⁴He asked life of thee; thou gavest it him; Even long life, enduring for ever.

⁵Great is his glory through thine aid; Honor and majesty hast thou laid upon him.

⁶Thou hast made him blessed for evermore; Thou hast made him glad with the joy of thy countenance.

⁷For the king trusteth in the LORD; And through the goodness of the Most High he shall never fall.
