Psalms 61

[Ladyjd721]

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


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


3 for thou hast been a shelter for me,
and a strong tower from the enemy.


4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever:
I will trust in the covert of thy wings.
Selah.


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


6 Thou wilt prolong the king's life:
and his years as many generations.


7 He shall abide before God for ever:
O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.


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