1Hear my cry, O God;attend to my prayer.
2From the ends of the earth I call out to Youwhenever my heart is faint.Lead me to the rockthat is higher than I.
3For You have been my refuge,a tower of strength against the enemy.
4Let me dwell in Your tent foreverand take refuge in the shelter of Your wings.Selah
5For You have heard my vows, O God;You have given me the inheritance
reserved for those who fear Your name.
6Increase the days of the king’s life;may his years span many generations.
7May he sit enthroned in God’s presence forever;appoint Your loving devotion
and Your faithfulness to guard him.
8Then I will ever sing praise to Your nameand fulfill my vows day by day.
