Security in God

For the choir director: on stringed instruments. Of David.

Psa 61:1

God, hear my cry;

pay attention to my prayer.

Psa 61:2

I call to you from the ends of the earth

when my heart is without strength.

Lead me to a rock that is high above me,

Psa 61:3

for you have been a refuge for me,

a strong tower in the face of the enemy.

Psa 61:4

I will dwell in your tent forever

and take refuge under the shelter of your wings.Selah

Psa 61:5

God, you have heard my vows;

you have given a heritage

to those who fear your name.

Psa 61:6

Add days to the king’s life;

may his years span many generations.

Psa 61:7

May he sit enthroned before God forever.

Appoint faithful love and truth to guard him.

Psa 61:8

Then I will continually sing of your name,

fulfilling my vows day by day.
