Psalm 61

Psalm 61

61 Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.

David cries to God and asks God to be present while he tells Him his problems.

2 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.

Where is the end of the earth?  I guess we can say it is at our wit's end or the end of our ropes.  My heart is full.  Lead me in the truth beyond my understanding.

3 For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.

You were my hiding place yesterday and a lookout for all who came against me.

4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.

I will stay in your Word at all times.  I will trust in the hidden spot under your protection.

5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.

You heard me when I said I want you to be Lord of my life.  You have given me what you promised Abraham.

6 Thou wilt prolong the king's life: and his years as many generations.

I will live the life of a king and may God allow my generation to reign.

7 He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.

David prophesys the coming of the Christ.  Tell mercy and truth to always look after my son.  

8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

When I sing I do my job better.  I will do my job and sing while I do it.

Brendaonline.com 149  Praise ye the  Lord . Sing unto the  Lord  a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints. In God's house, He wants His lyrics known. What is a new song?  A new song is a song of me finding out more about Him.  There is always a new song when you live as God said then sing about Him. 2  Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. Let the people of God that know who He is, be happy!  A good attitude in us, expresses that we are praisers. 3  Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp. People who know God will:  praise Him in the dance.  They will sing!  They will praise Him with instruments. 4  For the  Lord  taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation. The Lord is pleased with His people.  He will make His own people look like they belong to Him. 5  Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds. Our h
