…O LORD, God of our ancestors,
you alone are the God who is in heaven.
You are ruler of all the kingdoms of the earth.
You are powerful and mighty;
no one can stand against you!
…Whenever we are faced with any calamity…
…we can come to stand in your presence…
…We can cry out to you to save us,
and you will hear us and rescue us.
O our God, won’t you stop them?
We are powerless against this mighty army
that is about to attack us.
We do not know what to do,
but we are looking to you for help.
