1O God, listen to my petition; attend to my prayer.

2From the ends of the earth have I cried to you, when my heart was in trouble: you lifted me up on a rock you did guide me:

3because you were my hope, a tower of strength from the face of the enemy.

4I will dwell in your tabernacle for ever; I will shelter myself under the shadow of your wings. Pause.

5For you, o God, have heard my prayers; you have given an inheritance to them that fear your name.

6You shall add days to the days of the king; you shall lengthen his years to all generations.

7He shall endure for ever before God: which of them will seek out his mercy and truth?

8So will I sing to your name for ever and ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
