Psalm 131

A Song of degrees of David.


Tunes PCC uses:  Ballerma,  York  

 

1

My heart not haughty is, O Lord,

 

 

mine eyes not lofty be;

 

Nor do I deal in matters great,

 

 

or things too high for me.

2

I surely have myself behav’d

 

 

with quiet sp’rit and mild,

 

As child of mother wean’d: my soul

 

 

is like a weaned child.

 

3

Upon the Lord let all the hope

 

 

of Israel rely,

 

Ev’n from the time that present is

 

 

unto eternity.
