Prayer Of The King In Exile

Lyrics: Psalm 61
Music: J.M. Manzano


Ref.:
Hear O God my cry
Listen to my prayer

From the earth's end I call to you

My heart grows faint.

Hear O God my cry

Listen to my prayer

You will set me high upon a rock

And give me rest.


I. For you are my refuge
A tower of all strength
Against the enemy
I'll follow you there. Ref.

II. Forever I'm in your gaze
My shelter your embrace
You granted me the heritage
Of my forebears. Ref.

III. I'll sing you of my praises
My vows I will fulfill
Enthroned in you forever
Grant me your grace. Ref.
