1 For the end, among the Hymns of David.2 O God, hearken to my petition; Attend to my prayer.3 From the ends of the earth have I cried to thee, When my heart was in trouble: Thou liftedst me up on a rock, Thou didst guide me:4 because thou wert my hope, A tower of strength from the face of the enemy.5 I will dwell in thy tabernacle forever; I will shelter myself under the shadow of thy wings. Pause.6 For thou, O God, hast heard my prayers; Thou hast given an inheritance to them that fear thy name.7 Thou shalt add days to the days of the king; Thou shalt lengthen his years to all generations.8 He shall endure forever before God: Which of them will seek out his mercy and truth?9 So will I sing to thy name forever and ever, That I may daily perform my vows.
