- For the Chief Musician;
on a stringed instrument.
[A Psalm] of David.
- 1
- Hear my cry, O God;
Attend unto my prayer.
- 2
- From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
- 3
- For thou hast been a refuge for me, A strong tower from the enemy.
- 4
- I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever: I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings.
Selah
- 5
- For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: Thou hast given [me] the heritage of those that fear thy name.
- 6
- Thou wilt prolong the king’s life;
His years shall be as many generations.
- 7
- He shall abide before God for ever: Oh prepare lovingkindness and truth, that they may preserve him.
- 8
- So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, That I may daily perform my vows.
