Psalm 61:1-8 CEV

[1] Please listen, God, and answer my prayer! [2] I feel hopeless, and I cry out to you from a faraway land. Lead me to the mighty rock high above me. [3] You are a strong tower, where I am safe from my enemies. [4] Let me live with you forever and find protection under your wings, my God. [5] You heard my promises, and you have blessed me, just as you bless everyone who worships you. [6] Let the king have a long and healthy life. [7] May he always rule with you, God, at his side; may your love and loyalty watch over him. [8] I will sing your praises forever and will always keep my promises.
