Amplified Bible
Psalms 61
Confidence in God's Protection.
1 (C1)Hear my cry, O God;
(C2)Listen to my prayer.
2 From the (C1)end of the earth I call to You, when my heart is (C2)overwhelmed and weak;
Lead me to (C3)the rock that is higher than I a rock that is too high to reach without Your help.
3 For You have been a shelter and a (C1)refuge for me,
A (C2)strong tower against the enemy.
4 Let me (C1)dwell in Your tent forever;
Let me (C2)take refuge in the shelter of Your wings. Selah.
5 For You have heard my (C1)vows, O God;
You have given me the inheritance of those who (C2)fear Your name with reverence.
6 You will (C1)prolong the king's life adding days upon days;
His years will be like many generations.
7 He will sit enthroned forever (C1)before the face of God;
Appoint (C2)lovingkindness and truth to watch over and preserve him.
8 So I will (C1)sing praise to Your name forever,
(C2)Paying my vows day by day.
