Psa 61 | AB | STEP | O God, hearken to my petition; attend to my prayer.

Psalms 61

For the end, among the Hymns of David.

1 O God, hearken to my petition; attend to my prayer. 2 From the ends of the earth have I cried to You, when my heart was in trouble; You lifted me up on a rock; You guided me; 3 because You were my hope, a tower of strength from the face of the enemy. 4 I will dwell in Your tabernacle forever; I will shelter myself under the shadow of Your wings. Pause. 5 For You, O God, have heard my prayers; You have given an inheritance to them that fear Your name. 6 You shall add days to the days of the king; You shall lengthen his years to all generations. 7 He shall endure forever before God. Which of them shall seek out His mercy and truth? 8 So shall I sing to Your name forever and ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
