Childlike Trust in the Lord

A song for going up to worship. Of David.

131 Lord, my heart is not proud;
    I don’t look down on others.
I don’t do great things,
    and I can’t do miracles.
But I am calm and quiet,
    like a baby with its mother.
    I am at peace, like a baby with its mother.

People of Israel, put your hope in the Lord
    now and forever.

Psalm 131

A song of ascents. Of David.

My heart is not proud,(A) Lord,
    my eyes are not haughty;(B)
I do not concern myself with great matters(C)
    or things too wonderful for me.(D)
But I have calmed and quieted myself,(E)
    I am like a weaned child with its mother;
    like a weaned child I am content.(F)

Israel, put your hope(G) in the Lord
    both now and forevermore.(H)
