Psalms 61
Hear My Cry; Listen to My Prayer
1Hear my cry, O God,
listen to my prayer; 2 from the end of the earth I call to you
when my heart is faint.
Lead me to the rock
that is higher than I, 3 for you have been my refuge,
a strong tower against the enemy.
4 Let me dwell in your tent forever!
Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings! Selah 5 For you, O God, have heard my vows;
you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.
6 Prolong the life of the king;
may his years endure to all generations! 7 May he be enthroned forever before God;
appoint steadfast love and faithfulness to watch over him!
8 So will I ever sing praises to your name,
as I perform my vows day after day.
