Psalms of Grace ‎#131a

131a. My Heart Is Not Exalted, LORD

1 My heart is not exalted, LORD,
Nor haughty is my eye.
I do not deal in matters great,
Or things for me too high.

2 I have composed and calmed my soul,
I'm like a little child;
Now weaned, he on this mother rests
With soul subdued and mild.

3 Yes, like a child who has been weaned,
My soul is calmed in me.
Hope in the LORD, O Israel,
Now and eternally.
