Give Ear Unto My Prayer, O God
Psalm 61
Dwight Armstrong

Give ear unto my prayer, O God, from earth's far end I call;
And lead me to the Rock to rest that higher is than I.
For you have been a shelter and a fort against the foe;
O let me in Your dwelling place abide for ever more.

My God has heard my vows and granted righteous heritage;
The share for those who trust in Him and fear His holy name.
Let God prolong the true king's life; for ever let him reign!
That He may sit before our God, enthroned in righteousness

When I was faint I cried to God and he did hear my prayer.
For He has been my dwelling place; a shelter from the foe.
And so will I forever more sing praises to his name!
Sing praises to His Name fore'er, and daily pay my vows.
