Psalm 61
Vers 1
Listen to my cry and hear me;
God, be near me.
In your mercy heed my prayers.
When I call from far-off places,
God, be gracious,
for my heart is faint with cares.
Vers 2
LORD, with your support provide me;
safely guide me
to the rock for me too high.
You, my refuge and my tower,
showed your power
when my enemies drew nigh.
Vers 3
Keep me in your tent forever
Leave me never!
God of grace, to you I cling.
Shield me with your love and favour,
O my Saviour,
in the shelter of your wings.
Vers 4
When I made my vows, you heard me;
you reward me
with the heritage of those
who on bended knee adore you
and before you
in your steadfast love repose.
Vers 5
Show your love: the king’s life lengthen
and him strengthen.
May his reign go on and on.
Richly bless all his endeavour;
let him ever
sit before you on his throne.
Vers 6
Be, O God of might and splendour,
his defender,
and your steadfast love display.
Then will I, your name professing,
for your blessing
thank you with my vows each day.
