Psalm 61

1Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.
1Hear my cry, O God; attend 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.
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 a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.
3For You have been my refuge, a tower of strength against the enemy.
4I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah.
4Let me dwell in Your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of Your wings. Selah
5For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.
5For You have heard my vows, O God; You have given me the inheritance reserved for those who fear Your name.
6You will prolong the king’s life. His years will be for generations.
6Increase the days of the king’s life; may his years span many generations.
7He shall be enthroned in God’s presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.
7May he sit enthroned in God’s presence forever; appoint Your loving devotion and Your faithfulness to guard him.
8So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows daily.
8Then I will ever sing praise to Your name and fulfill my vows day by day.
