You have heard my vow

1
Unto the end, in hymns, for David.
2
Hear, O God, my supplication: be attentive to my prayer,
3
To thee have I cried from the ends of the earth: when my heart was in anguish, thou hast exalted me on a rock. Thou hast conducted me;
4
For thou hast been my hope; a tower of strength against the face of the enemy.
5
In thy tabernacle I shall dwell for ever: I shall be protected under the covert of thy wings.
6
For thou, my God, hast heard my prayer: thou hast given an inheritance to them that fear thy name.
7
Thou wilt add days to the days of the king: his years even to generation and generation.
8
He abideth for ever in the sight of God: his mercy and truth who shall search?
9
So will I sing a psalm to thy name for ever and ever: that I may pay my vows from day to day.

You have heard my vow

1
Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.
2
From the end of the earth, I will call to you when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
3
For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.
4
I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah.
5
For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.
6
You will prolong the king’s life. His years will be for generations.
7
He shall be enthroned in God’s presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.
8
So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows daily.
