Psalm 131 (Tate & Brady)

C.M. (8.6.8.6) Psalm 131 Nahum Tate, Nicholas Brady

Psalm Text

1 O Lord, I am not proud of heart,

Nor cast a scornful eye;

Nor my aspiring thoughts employ

in things for me too high.

2 With infant innocence thou know'st

I have myself demeaned;

composed to quiet, like a babe

that from the breast is weaned.

3 Like me, let Israel hope in God,

His aid alone implore:

Both now and ever trust in Him,

who lives for evermore.
