< Psalms 61 >
1 Hear my cry, O God. Attend to my prayer.
2 From the end of the earth I will call to thee when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
3 For thou have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.
4 I will dwell in thy tabernacle forever. I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. (Selah)
5 For thou, O God, have heard my vows. Thou have given me the heritage of those who fear thy name.
6 Thou will prolong the king's life. His years shall be as many generations.
7 He shall abide before God forever. O prepare loving kindness and truth that they may preserve him.
8 So I will sing praise to thy name forever, that I may daily perform my vows.
