Psalms 61 — DBY

To the chief Musician. On a stringed instrument. [A Psalm] of David.

61Verse 1Hear, O^°God, my cry; attend unto my prayer.
^{Verse 2}From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: thou wilt lead me on to a rock which is too high for me.
^{Verse 3}For thou hast been a refuge for me, a strong tower from before the enemy.
^{Verse 4}I will sojourn in thy tent for ever; I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. Selah.
^{Verse 5}For thou, O^°God, hast heard my vows; thou hast given [me] the inheritance of those that fear thy name.
^{Verse 6}Thou wilt add days to the days of the king: his years shall be as many generations.
^{Verse 7}He shall abide before^°God for ever: bestow loving-kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.
^{Verse 8}So will I sing forth thy name for ever, performing my vows from day to day.
