I feel hopeless,
and I cry out to you
    from a faraway land.

Lead me to the mighty rock[a]
    high above me.
You are a strong tower,
where I am safe
    from my enemies.

Let me live with you forever
and find protection
    under your wings, my God.

I long to dwell(E) in your tent forever
    and take refuge in the shelter of your wings.[a](F)
