The Psalms of David ‎#244a

244a. Humility and Submission

1 Is there Ambition in my Heart?.
Search, gracious GOD, and see;
Or do I act a haughty Part?
Lord, I appeal to Thee.

2 I charge my Thoughts, be humble still,
And all my Carriage mild,
Content, my Father, with thy Will,
And quiet as a Child.

3 The patient Soul, the lowly Mind,
Shall have a large Reward:
Let Saints in Sorrow lie resign'd,
And trust a faithful Lord.
