PSALM 131
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
A Song of degrees of David.
1My heart not haughty is, O Lord,
mine eyes not lofty be;
Nor do I deal in matters great,
or things too high for me.
2I surely have myself behav'd
with quiet sp'rit and mild,
As child of mother wean'd: my soul
is like a weaned child.
3Upon the Lord let all the hope
of Israel rely,
Ev'n from the time that present is
unto eternity.

Psalm 131
131
Psalm 131
A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord. A psalm of David.
1 Lord, my heart isn’t proud.
My eyes aren’t proud either.
I don’t concern myself with important matters.
I don’t concern myself with things that are too wonderful for me.
2I have made myself calm and content
like a young child in its mother’s arms.
Deep down inside me, I am as content as a young child.
3Israel, put your hope in the Lord
both now and forever.
