1 Hear my crying, O God, ♦︎
and listen to my prayer.
2 From the end of the earth I call to you with fainting heart; ♦︎
O set me on the rock that is higher than I.
3 For you are my refuge, ♦︎
a strong tower against the enemy.
4 Let me dwell in your tent for ever ♦︎
and take refuge under the cover of your wings.
5 For you, O God, will hear my vows; ♦︎
you will grant the request of those who fear your name.
6 You will add length of days to the life of the king, ♦︎
that his years may endure throughout all generations.
7 May he sit enthroned before God for ever; ♦︎
may steadfast love and truth watch over him.
8 So will I always sing praise to your name, ♦︎
and day by day fulfil my vows.
1 The Lord is king: let the peoples tremble; ♦︎
he is enthroned above the cherubim: let the earth shake.
2 The Lord is great in Zion ♦︎
and high above all peoples.
3 Let them praise your name, which is great and awesome; ♦︎
the Lord our God is holy.
4 Mighty king, who loves justice,
you have established equity; ♦︎
you have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.
5 Exalt the Lord our God; ♦︎
bow down before his footstool, for he is holy.
6 Moses and Aaron among his priests
and Samuel among those who call upon his name; ♦︎
they called upon the Lord and he answered them.
7 He spoke to them out of the pillar of cloud; ♦︎
they kept his testimonies and the law that he gave them.
8 You answered them, O Lord our God; ♦︎
you were a God who forgave them
and pardoned them for their offences.
9 Exalt the Lord our God
and worship him upon his holy hill, ♦︎
for the Lord our God is holy.
