1.My heart not haughty is, O Lord,
mine eyes not lofty be;
Nor do I deal in matters great,
or things too high for me.

2.I surely have myself behaved
with quiet spirit and mild,
As child of mother weaned: my soul
is like a weaned child.

3.Upon the Lord let all the hope
of Israel rely,
Ev'n from the time that present is
unto eternity.
