Psalm 61


1 [To the chief Musician upon Neginah. A Psalm of David.] Hear my cry, O God. Attend to my prayer.

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

3 For you have been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.

4 I will abide in your tabernacle forever. I will trust in the covert of your wings. [Selah]

5 For you, O God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

6 You will prolong the king's life, and his years as many generations.

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

8 So I will sing praise to your name forever, when I daily perform my vows.
