^(C1)Hear my cry, God; ^(C2)Give Your attention to my prayer.

From the ^(C1)end of the earth I call to You when my heart is ^(C2)faint; Lead me to ^(C3)the rock that is higher than I.

For You have been a ^(C1)refuge for me, A ^(C2)tower of strength against the enemy.

Let me ^(F1)(C1)dwell in Your tent forever; Let me ^(C2)take refuge in the shelter of Your wings. Selah

For You have heard my ^(C1)vows, God; You have given me the inheritance of those who ^(C2)fear Your name.

You will ^(F1)(C1)prolong the king's ^(F2)life; His years will be like generations.

He will ^(F1)sit enthroned ^(C1)before God forever; Appoint ^(C2)faithfulness and truth that they may watch over him.

So I will ^(C1)sing praise to Your name forever, That I may ^(C2)pay my vows day by day.

^(C1)My soul waits in silence for God alone; From Him ^(C2)comes my salvation.

He alone is my ^(C1)rock and my salvation, My ^(C2)stronghold; I will not be greatly shaken.

How long will you attack a man, That you may murder him, all of you, Like a ^(C1)leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

They have planned only to thrust him down from his high position; They ^(C1)delight in falsehood; They ^(C2)bless with ^(F1)their mouth, But inwardly they curse. Selah

My soul, ^(C1)wait in silence for God alone, For my hope is from Him.

He alone is ^(C1)my rock and my salvation, My refuge; I will not be shaken.

My ^(C1)salvation and my glory rest on God; The rock of my strength, my ^(C2)refuge is in God.

^(C1)Trust in Him at all times, you people; ^(C2)Pour out your hearts before Him; God is a refuge for us. Selah

People of ^(C1)low standing are only ^(C2)breath, and people of rank are a ^(C3)lie; In the ^(C4)balances they go up. Together they are lighter than breath.

^(C1)Do not trust in oppression, And do not vainly rely on ^(C2)robbery; If wealth increases, ^(C3)do not set your heart on it.

God has ^(C1)spoken ^(F1)once; ^(F2)Twice I have heard this: That ^(C2)power belongs to God;

And faithfulness ^(C1)is Yours, Lord, For You ^(C2)reward a person according to his work.

There will be silence ^(F1)before You, and praise in Zion, God, And the ^(C1)vow will be fulfilled for You.

You who hear prayer, To You ^(C1)all ^(F1)mankind comes.

^(F1)(C1)Wrongdoings prevail against me; As for our offenses, You ^(F2)(C2)forgive them.

^(C1)Blessed is the one You ^(C2)choose and allow to approach You; He will dwell in Your courtyards. We will be ^(C3)satisfied with the goodness of Your house, Your holy temple.

By ^(C1)awesome deeds You answer us in righteousness, ^(C2)God of our salvation, You who are the trust of all the ^(C3)ends of the earth and the farthest ^(F1)(C4)sea;

Who ^(C1)establishes the mountains by His strength, Who is ^(C2)encircled with might;

Who ^(C1)stills the roaring of the seas, The roaring of their waves, And the ^(C2)turmoil of the nations.

They who dwell at the ^(C1)ends of the earth stand in awe of Your signs; You make the ^(F1)sunrise and the sunset shout for joy.

You visit the earth and ^(C1)cause it to overflow; You greatly ^(C2)enrich it; The ^(F1)(C3)stream of God is full of water; You prepare their ^(C4)grain, for so You prepare ^(F2)the earth.

You water its furrows abundantly, You ^(F1)settle its ridges, You soften it ^(C1)with showers, You bless its growth.

You have crowned the year ^(F1)with Your ^(C1)goodness, And Your ^(F2)paths ^(C2)drip with fatness.

^(C1)The pastures of the wilderness drip, And the ^(C2)hills encircle themselves with rejoicing.

The meadows are ^(C1)clothed with flocks And the valleys are ^(C2)covered with grain; They ^(C3)shout for joy, yes, they sing.
