Psalms 61

Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.

Hear my cry, O God; Attend unto my prayer.

From the end of the earth, I will call to you when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.

For thou hast been a refuge for me, A strong tower from the enemy.

I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah.

I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever: I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. [Selah

For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: Thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.

You will prolong the king’s life. His years will be for generations.

Thou wilt prolong the king’s life; His years shall be as many generations.

He shall be enthroned in God’s presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

He shall abide before God for ever: Oh prepare lovingkindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows daily.

So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, That I may daily perform my vows.
