Psalms 61

¹Hear my cry, O God; Attend unto my prayer.

²From 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.

³For thou hast been a refuge for me, A strong tower from the enemy.

⁴I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever: I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. Selah

⁵For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: Thou hast given `me' the heritage of those that fear thy name.

⁶Thou wilt prolong the king's life; His years shall be as many generations.

⁷He shall abide before God for ever: Oh prepare lovingkindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

⁸So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, That I may daily perform my vows. Psalm 62 For the Chief Musician; after the manner of Jeduthan. A Psalm of David.
