I long to dwell in your tent forever

and take refuge in the shelter of your wings.

I call to you from the ends of the earth

when my heart is without strength.

Lead me to a rock that is high above me,

for you have been a refuge for me,

a strong tower in the face of the enemy.

I will dwell in your tent forever

and take refuge under the shelter of your wings.

Selah

From the ends of the earth,

I cry to you for help

when my heart is overwhelmed.

Lead me to the towering rock of safety,

for you are my safe refuge,

a fortress where my enemies cannot reach me.

Let me live forever in your sanctuary,

safe beneath the shelter of your wings!

Let me take refuge under the covering of your wings. Selah

From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed:

Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

For thou hast been a shelter for me,

And a strong tower from the enemy.

I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever:

I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.
