1 

Hear my cry, O God;

listen to my prayer.

2 

From the end of the earth I call to you,

when my heart is faint.

Lead me to the rock

that is higher than I;

3 

for you are my refuge,

a strong tower against the enemy.

4 

Let me abide in your tent forever,

find refuge under the shelter of your wings.

5 

For you, O God, have heard my vows;

you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

6 

Prolong the life of the king;

may his years endure to all generations!

7 

May he be enthroned forever before God;

appoint steadfast love and faithfulness to watch over him!

8 

So I will always sing praises to your name,

as I pay my vows day after day.
