Psalms 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.

^{Verse 4}Let me dwell in Your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of Your wings. Selah ^{Verse 5}For You have heard my vows, O God; You have given me the inheritance reserved for those who fear Your name. ^{Verse 6}Increase the days of the king’s life; may his years span many generations. ^{Verse 7}May he sit enthroned in God’s presence forever; appoint Your loving devotion and Your faithfulness to guard him. ^{Verse 8}Then I will ever sing praise to Your name and fulfill my vows day by day.
