Psalms 61 · Grade 2
A Rock Higher Than Me
Read the Story
David was far away. His heart was sad. He prayed, Hear my cry, God. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
God was like a strong tower for David. David wanted to stay with God forever. He told God that he would hide under his wings. He would sing to God's name forever.
