1. ((To the chief Musician. On a stringed instrument. [A Psalm] of David.)) Hear, O God, my cry; attend unto my prayer.
2. From the end of the earth will I call unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed thou wilt lead me on to a rock which is too high for me.
3. For thou hast been a refuge for me, a strong tower from before the enemy.
4. I will sojourn in thy tent for ever; I will take refuge in the covert of thy wings. Selah.
5. For thou, O God, hast heard my vows; thou hast given [me] the inheritance of those that fear thy name.
6. Thou wilt add days to the days of the king his years shall be as many generations.
7. He shall abide before God for ever bestow loving-kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.
8. So will I sing forth thy name for ever, performing my vows from day to day.
