Upon a stringed instrument.
Of David.
1Hear my lamenting cry, O God. Give attention to my prayer.
2From the end of the earth I will call to you, when my heart is weak. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
3For you have been a refuge for me, a tower of strength against the enemy.
4O that I might sojourn in your tent forever. I will seek refuge under the covering of your wings. Selah.
5For you, O God, have heard my vows. You have given me the inheritance of those who fear your name.
6You will add days to the king’s life; may his years be from generation to generation.
7He will sit enthroned in God’s presence forever. Appoint your covenant faithfulness and truth that they may watch over him!
8So I will make music to your name forever, so that I may fulfill my vows day by day.
