The Psalms of David · Psalm 131

Is there ambition in my heart?. Search, gracious God, and see; Or do I act a haughty part? Lord, I appeal to thee.

I charge my thoughts, be humble still, And all my carriage mild, Content, my Father, with thy will, And quiet as a child.

The patient soul, the lowly mind, Shall have a large reward: Let in sorrow lie resigned, And trust a faithful Lord.
