Psalms 61

   |   

Confidence in God's Protection.

For the music director; on a stringed instrument. A Psalm of David.

1 (C1)Hear my cry, God;
(C2)Give Your attention to my prayer.

2 From the (C1)end of the earth I call to You when my heart is (C2)faint;
Lead me to (C3)the rock that is higher than I.

3 For You have been a (C1)refuge for me,
A (C2)tower of strength against the enemy.

4 Let me (F1)(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, God;
You have given me the inheritance of those who (C2)fear Your name.

6 You will (F1)(C1)prolong the king's (F2)life;
His years will be like generations.

7 He will (F1)sit enthroned (C1)before God forever;
Appoint (C2)faithfulness and truth that they may watch over him.

8 So I will (C1)sing praise to Your name forever,
That I may (C2)pay my vows day by day.
