A Song of Quiet Trust


The words of Psalm 131:


O Lord, my heart is not lifted up

my eyes are not raised too high;

I do not occupy myself with things

too great and too marvelous for me.


But I have calmed and quieted my soul,

like a weaned child wit its mother;

my soul is like the weaned child that is with me.


O Israel, hope in the Lord

from this time on and forevermore.
