Psalms 61

A Prayer for Protection and Trust in God's Shelter

1 min read

1 Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer.
2 From the end of the earth will I cry to you, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
3 For you have been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.
4 I will abide in your tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of your wings. Selah.
5 For you, O God, have heard my vows: you have given me the heritage of those that fear your name.
6 You will prolong the king’s life: and his years as many generations.
7 He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.
8 So will I sing praise to your name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
