Psalm 61 (60)
2 Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer.
3 I call to you from the ends of the earth; my heart grows faint. Set me high upon a rock;
4 be my re fuge, a strong tower against the ene my.
5 Let me dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in your wings’ shelter.
6 Indeed you have heard my vows, O God, and the wish of those who fear your name.
7 Increase the days of the king’s life; prolong his years for many ge n e rations.
8 May he ever be enthroned in God’s pres ence; let your love and loyalty watch over him.
9 So I will sing praises to your name and fulfill my vows day after day.
