Psalm 61

Confidence in God's Protection

611 Hear my cry, O God; Attend unto my prayer. 2 From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. 3 For thou hast been a refuge for me, A strong tower from the enemy. 4 I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever: I will take refuge 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; His years shall be as many generations. 7 He shall abide before God for ever: Oh prepare lovingkindness and truth, that they may preserve him. 8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, That I may daily perform my vows.

Psalm 61

Confidence in God's Protection

611 Hear my cry, God.
Listen to my prayer. 2 From 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. 3 For you have been a refuge for me,
a strong tower from the enemy. 4 I will dwell in your tent forever.
I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah.

5 For you, 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;
his years shall be for generations. 7 He shall be enthroned in God’s presence forever.
Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him. 8 So I will sing praise to your name forever,
that I may fulfill my vows daily.

Psalm 61

Confidence in God's Protection

611 To the chief Musician. On a stringed instrument. [A Psalm] of David. Hear, O God, my cry; attend unto my prayer. 2 From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my eart is overwhelmed: thou wilt lead me on to a rock which is too high for me. 3 For thou hast been a refuge for me, a strong tower from before the enemy. 4 I will sojourn in thy tent for ever; I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. Selah.

5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows; thou hast given [me] the inheritance of those that fear thy name. 6 Thou wilt add days to the days of the king: his years shall be as many generations. 7 He shall abide before God for ever: bestow loving-kindness and truth, that they may preserve him. 8 So will I sing forth thy name for ever, performing my vows from day to day.
