Psalms 61

PSALM 61
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
To the chief Musician upon Neginoth,
A Psalm of David.
1O God, give ear unto my cry;
unto my pray'r attend.
2From th' utmost corner of the land
my cry to thee I'll send.
What time my heart is overwhelm'd,
and in perplexity,
Do thou me lead unto the Rock
that higher is than I.
3For thou hast for my refuge been
a shelter by thy pow'r;
And for defence against my foes
thou hast been a strong tow'r.
4Within thy tabernacle I
for ever will abide;
And under covert of thy wings
with confidence me hide.
5For thou the vows that I did make,
O Lord my God, didst hear:
Thou hast giv'n me the heritage
of those thy name that fear.
6A life prolong'd for many days
thou to the king shalt give;
Like many generations be
the years which he shall live.
7He in God's presence his abode
for evermore shall have:
O do thou truth and mercy both
prepare, that may him save.
8And so will I perpetually
sing praise unto thy name;
That having made my vows, I may
each day perform the same.

Psalms 61
61
PSALM 61
1 To victory, on organs, to David himself. God, hear thou my beseech-ing; give thou attention to my prayer.
2From the ends of the land I cried to thee; the while mine heart was anguished, thou enhancedest me in a stone. Thou leddest me forth,
3for thou art made mine hope; a tower of strength from the face of the enemy.
4I shall dwell in thy tabernacle into worlds; I shall be covered in the covering of thy wings.
5For thou, my God, hast heard my prayer; thou hast given heritage to them that dread thy name.
6Thou shalt add, either increase, days on[to] the days of the king; his years till into the day of generation and of generation.
7He dwelleth without end in the sight of God; who shall seek the mercy and truth of him?
8So I shall say psalm to thy name into the world of world; that I yield my vows from day into day.
