 1.  Give ear unto my prayer, O God,
        from earth's far end I call;
     And lead me to the Rock to rest
        that higher is than I.
     For you have been a shelter and 
        a fort against the foe;
     O let me in Your dwelling place
        abide for ever more.

 2.  My God has heard my vows and granted
        righteous heritage;
     The share for those who trust in Him
        and fear His holy name.
     Let God prolong the true king's life;
        for ever let him reign!
     That He may sit before our God,
        enthroned in righteousness

 3.  When I was faint I cried to God 
        and he did hear my prayer.
     For He has been my dwelling place;
        a shelter from the foe.
     And so will I forever more
        sing praises to his name!
     Sing praises to His Name fore'er,
        and daily pay my vows.
