Psalms 61
1<b>For the Chief Musician. For a stringed instrument. By David. </b> Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer. 2From 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. 3For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy. 4I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. <i>Selah.</i> 5For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name. 6You will prolong the king’s life; his years shall be for generations. 7He shall be enthroned in God’s presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him. 8So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows daily.
