Psalm 61

posted 31 Jan 2014, 04:01 by Ben@theorderoftheblacksheep.com
Hear me, O God, when I cry;
    listen to my prayer.
2 You are the One I will call when pushed to the edge,
    when my heart is faint.
    Shoulder me to the rock above me.
3 For You are my protection,
    an impenetrable fortress from my enemies.

4 Let me live in Your sanctuary forever;
    let me find safety in the shadow of Your wings.

[pause][a]

5 You have heard the promises I made, O God.
    You have laid upon me the legacy due to those who fear Your name.

6 Extend the king’s life, day after day;
    increase his years for many generations.
7 May he be ever present before God,
    attended and guarded by Your loyal love and truth.

8 So I will never stop singing Your praise;
    as long as I live, I will fulfill my promise.
