The Book of Psalms, Chapter 61
|
| 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.
