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 wingsĄ¯ 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 kingĄ¯s life; prolong his years for many ge n e
rations.
8 May he ever be enthroned in GodĄ¯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.
