Psal. CXXXI.
O Lord! I have no haughty mind,
Nor eyes to pride inclin'd.
To matters great I not aspire,
Nor things too high desire.
Nor eyes to pride inclin'd.
To matters great I not aspire,
Nor things too high desire.
But low in thought, in action mild,
Like to a weaned Child,
So wean'd from all earth's vanities
My soule on Thee relies.
Like to a weaned Child,
So wean'd from all earth's vanities
My soule on Thee relies.
Let Israel make God their scope,
And in His goodnesse hope;
Untill both time, and life shall end,
On Him alone depend.
And in His goodnesse hope;
Untill both time, and life shall end,
On Him alone depend.
