1 Hear my cry, O God;listen to my prayer!
2 In despair and far from homeI call to you!Take me to a safe refuge,
3 for you are my protector,my strong defence against my enemies.
4 Let me live in your sanctuary all my life;let me find safety under your wings.
5 You have heard my promises, O God,and you have given me what belongs to those who honour you.
6 Add many years to the king's life;let him live on and on!
