Hymn · Psalm 131
My Heart Not Haughty Is, O Lord
ST. THOMAS · S.M. · words from the Scottish Psalter, 1650 · music Aaron Williams
Setting: Open Hymnal · Open Hymnal (oh44-c-natural) (needs editorial underlay)
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.
