For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments. Of David.

You Have Heard My Vows

1To the Overseer, on stringed instruments. --By David. Hear, O God, my loud cry, attend to my prayer.+ 2From the end of the land unto Thee I call, In the feebleness of my heart, Into a rock higher than I Thou dost lead me.+ 3For Thou hast been a refuge for me, A tower of strength because of the enemy.+ 4I sojourn in Thy tent to the ages, I trust in the secret place of Thy wings. Selah.+ 5For Thou, O God, hast hearkened to my vows, Thou hast appointed the inheritance Of those fearing Thy name.+ 6Days to the days of the king Thou addest, His years as generation and generation.+ 7He dwelleth to the age before God, Kindness and truth appoint--they keep him.+ 8So do I praise Thy name for ever, When I pay my vows day by day!+
