290. Not Haughty is My Heart

1 Not haughty is my heart,
Not lofty is my pride;
I do not seek to know the things
God's wisdom has denied.
I do not seek to know the things
God's wisdom has denied.

2 With childlike trust, O Lord,
In Thee I calmly rest,
Contented as a little child
Upon its mother's breast.
Contented as a little child
Upon its mother's breast.

3 Ye people of the Lord,
In Him alone confide;
From this time forth and evermore
His wisdom be your guide.
From this time forth and evermore
His wisdom be your guide.
