The Psalms
Psalm 61
Hear my cry, O God, listen to my prayer;
from the end of the earth I call to thee, when my heart is faint. Lead thou me to the rock that is higher than I;
for thou art my refuge, a strong tower against the enemy.
Let me dwell in thy tent for ever! Oh to be safe under the shelter of thy wings! Selah
For thou, O God, hast heard my vows, thou hast given me the heritage of those who fear thy name.
Prolong the life of the king; may his years endure to all generations!
May he be enthroned for ever before God; bid steadfast love and faithfulness watch over him!
So will I ever sing praises to thy name, as I pay my vows day after day.
