LYRICS

Hear My Cry, O God (Psalm 61)

Tune: Caisleán an Óir

Hear my cry, O God
and listen to my prayer
From the end of earth I call to you
when my heart is faint
Lead me to the Rock that is higher than I
for you are my refuge, my strong tower, my God forevermore

Let me dwell within your tent
now and forevermore
Let me rest beneath your sheltering wings
for you have heard my vows

I will always sing my praise unto your name
for you are my refuge, my strong tower
my God forevermore
