| 1 | For the director of music. With stringed instruments. Of David. Hear my cry, O God; listen to my prayer. | |
| 2 | From the ends of the earth I call to you, I call as my heart grows faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I. | |
| 3 | For you have been my refuge, a strong tower against the foe. | |
| 4 | I long to dwell in your tent forever and take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah | |
| 5 | For you have heard my vows, O God; you have given me the heritage of those who fear your name. | |
| 6 | Increase the days of the king's life, his years for many generations. | |
| 7 | May he be enthroned in God's presence forever; appoint your love and faithfulness to protect him. | |
| 8 | Then will I ever sing praise to your name and fulfill my vows day after day. | |
