Contemporary Worship Lyrics

PSA 131:1-3

English Lyrics

Verse 1:

O Lord, You are my God and King

You know my every thought and deed

You see the pride that fills my heart

The things I chase that keep us apart

Chorus:

But I have calmed and quieted my soul

Like a weaned child with its mother

Like a weaned child is my soul within me

I have calmed and quieted my soul

Verse 2:

O Lord, You are my hope and peace

You teach me how to trust and rest

You show me how to be like You

A humble child who loves the truth

Chorus:

But I have calmed and quieted my soul

Like a weaned child with its mother

Like a weaned child is my soul within me

I have calmed and quieted my soul

Bridge:

Truly, truly, You say to me

Unless I turn and become like a child

I will never see Your kingdom come

But whoever humbles himself like this child

Is the greatest in Your kingdom come

Chorus:

But I have calmed and quieted my soul

Like a weaned child with its mother

Like a weaned child is my soul within me

I have calmed and quieted my soul

Outro:

O Israel, hope in the Lord

From this time forth and forevermore

Hope in the Lord, hope in the Lord
