Lead Me to the Rock
For the choir director. On a stringed instrument. Of David.
aHear my cry of lamentation, O God;
bGive heed to my prayer.
2 From the aend of the earth I call to You when my heart is bfaint;
Lead me to cthe rock that is higher than I.
3 For You have been a arefuge for me,
A btower of strength before the enemy.
4 Let me asojourn in Your tent forever;
Let me btake refuge in the shelter of Your wings. Selah.
5 For You, O God, have heard my avows;
You have given me the inheritance of those who bfear Your name.
6 You will aadd days to the king’s life;
His years will be from generation to generation.
7 He will sit enthroned abefore God forever;
Appoint blovingkindness and truth that they may guard him.
8 So I will asing praise to Your name forever,
As I bpay my vows day by day.
