1 O God, hear my cry for help! Pay attention to my prayer! 2 From the most remote place on earth I call out to you in my despair. Lead me up to an inaccessible rocky summit! 3 Indeed, you are my shelter, a strong tower that protects me from the enemy. 4 I will be a permanent guest in your home; I will find shelter in the protection of your wings. (Selah) 5 For you, O God, hear my vows; you grant me the reward that belongs to your loyal followers. 6 Give the king long life! Make his lifetime span several generations! 7 May he reign forever before God! Decree that your loyal love and faithfulness should protect him. 8 Then I will sing praises to your name continually, as I fulfill my vows day after day.
