My heart’s not proud, O LORD, · S.M.
3 verses
My heart’s not proud, O LORD,
My heart’s not proud, O LORD,
nor haughty is my eye;
I do not occupy myself
with things too great or high.
My spirit I have calmed;
my heart is pacified.
My soul is like a little child
close to its mother’s side.
Just like a little child
my soul is calmed in me.
O Isr’el, hope in God the LORD
now and eternally.
