Berean Standard Bible
“From the ends of the earth I call out to You whenever my heart is faint. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.”
Psalms 61 is a short psalm of David, a prayer for protection that also asks God to prolong the king's life. David speaks as someone far away, possibly during his flight from Absalom, feeling distant from the place of God's presence.
