2 \\61:1\\To the chief Musician upon Neginah, A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer.

3 \\61:2\\From the end of the earth will I cry to thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

4 \\61:3\\For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.

5 \\61:4\\I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.

6 \\61:5\\For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.

7 \\61:6\\Thou wilt prolong the king's life: and his years as many generations.

8 \\61:7\\He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.

9 \\61:8\\So will I sing praise to thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
