Psalms 61

1 For the end, among the Hymns of David. 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: youlifted me up on a rock you did guide me:
3 because you were my hope, a tower of strength from the face of the enemy.
4 I will dwell in your tabernacle for ever; I will shelter myself under the shadowof your wings. Pause.
5 For you, o God, have heard my prayers; you have given an inheritance to them thatfear 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 for ever before God: which of them will seek out his mercy andtruth?
8 So will I sing to your name for ever and ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
