1 Hear my cry, O God;

Attend to my prayer.

2 From the end of the earth I will 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,

*A strong tower from the enemy.

4 I will abide in Your tabernacle forever;

*I will trust in the shelter of Your wings.

Selah

5 For You, O God, have heard my vows;

You have given me the heritage of those who fear Your name.

6 You will prolong the king’s life,

His years as many generations.

7 He shall abide before God forever.

Oh, prepare mercy *and truth, which may preserve him!

8 So I will sing praise to Your name forever,

That I may daily perform my vows.
