Psalms, Chapter 61

  
1. To the chief musician. On stringed instruments. Of David. Hear my cry, O God, and listen to my prayer.
  
2. From the end of the earth I call to You when my heart faints; Oh lead me to the Rock that is higher than I.
  
3. For You have been my shelter, a strong tower before the enemy.
  
4. I will dwell in Your tabernacle forever; I will trust in the shelter of Your wings. Selah.
  
5. For You, O God, have heard my vows; You appointed the inheritance of those who fear Your name.
  
6. You will add days to the days of the king; his years will be as generations to generations.
  
7. He shall abide forever before God; appoint mercy and truth to preserve him.
  
8. So I will sing praise to Your name forever, so that I may pay my vows day by day.
