Confidence in God’s Protection.

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

1 Hear my cry, O God;
          Give heed to my prayer.

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

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

4 Let me dwell in Your tent forever;
          Let me take refuge in the shelter of Your wings.


5 For You have heard my vows, O God;
          You have given me the inheritance of those who fear Your name.

6 You will prolong the king’s life;
          His years will be as many generations.

7 He will abide before God forever;
          Appoint lovingkindness and truth that they may preserve him.

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