Psalm 61

¹Hear my cry, O God;

attend to my prayer.

²From the ends of the earth I call out to You

whenever my heart is faint.

Lead me to the rock

that is higher than I.

³For You have been my refuge,

a tower of strength against the enemy.

⁴Let me dwell in Your tent forever

and take refuge in the shelter of Your wings.

⁵For You have heard my vows, O God;

You have given me the inheritance

reserved for those who fear Your name.

⁶Increase the days of the king’s life;

may his years span many generations.

⁷May he sit enthroned in God’s presence forever;

appoint Your loving devotion

and Your faithfulness to guard him.

⁸Then I will ever sing praise to Your name

and fulfill my vows day by day.

— Psalm 61
