Psalm 61 – Our God is a Strong Tower

61 For the leader. On stringed instruments. Of David.

61 Hear my cry, O God,

be attentive to my prayer.

2 From the ends of the earth I call

unto you, when my heart is faint:

lead me to the rock

that is high above me.

3 For you are a refuge to me,

a strong tower in face of the foe.

4 O to be guest in your tent forever,

hiding beneath your sheltering wings! Selah

5 For you, O God, do hear my vows,

and grant the desires of those who fear you.

6 Add many days to the life of the king;

may his years endure throughout all generations.

7 In the presence of God be he throned forever;

may kindness and faithfulness watch over him.

8 And I will sing praise to your name forever,

paying my vows day after day.
