Psalm 131
1O Lord, I am not proud;
I have no haughty looks.
2I do not occupy myself with great matters,
or with things that are too hard for me.
3But I still my soul and make it quiet,
like a child upon its mother’s breast;
my soul is quieted within me.
4O Israel, wait upon the Lord,
from this time forth for evermore.
A Collect for the Renewal of Life
O God, the King eternal,
who divides the day from the night
and turns the shadow of death into the morning:
Drive far from us all wrong desires,
incline our hearts to keep your law,
and guide our feet into the way of peace;
that, having done your will with cheerfulness while it was day, we may, when night comes,
rejoice to give you thanks;
through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
