Psalm 61

You Have Heard My Vows

¹For the one directing. On a stringed instrument. Of David. Hear, O God, my cry; attend to my prayer.

²From the end of the earth I call out to You in the feebleness of my heart; may You lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

³For You have been a place of refuge for me, a tower of strength against the face of the enemy.

⁴Let me sojourn in Your Tent forever; I will take refuge in the shelter of Your wings. Selah

⁵for You, O God, have listend to my vows; You have appointed the inheritance of those fearing Your name.

⁶May You add days to the days of the king; may his years be as generation and generation.

⁷May he dwell forever before God; may You appoint loving devotion and faithfulness to guard him.

⁸So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may perform my vows, day by day.
