What does Psalms 61:3-4 Mean?

Contextual Meaning

David"s desire for God"s protection rested on the Lord"s previous provisions of deliverance for him. God had proved to be his refuge and tower of strength. Now the psalmist longed to dwell in the Lord"s tent or tabernacle and to enjoy the protection of His wings, as though he were a baby chick or bird (cf. Psalm 17:8; Psalm 36:7; Psalm 57:1; Psalm 63:7; Psalm 91:4).

"The psalmist"s longing for God ( Psalm 61:1-5) is a familiar motif in the Psalm as an expression of deep love for God arising out of great adversity (cf. Psalm 20; Psalm 21; Psalm 27; Psalm 42; Psalm 43; Psalm 63)." ^[1]
