Verses 1 and 2 kind of say it all;

O Lord, my heart is not lifted up;
    my eyes are not raised too high;
I do not occupy myself with things
    too great and too marvelous for me.
2 But I have calmed and quieted my soul,
    like a weaned child with its mother;
    like a weaned child is my soul within me

We rest in the loving care of the God who has limitless love for His children, because of the work done on our behalf by our loving Savior. Rest for the weary, hope for the downcast and food for the soul.

Lyrics for "I Am Your Child"

 

Psalm 131

I am your child 

Resting in your arms

I am your child,

My heart is Yours

Under Your watch forever 

I bow before my Savior

I am your child 

 

Chorus:

All is quiet

All is calm

All is well

All is quiet

All is calm

All shall be well

From this time forth and forevermore

Resting beneath Your smile

With hope like a child

 

 

I am Your child

Weaned of it’s mother

My eyes look to You

I trust  you my Father

I am Your child 

You hear when I cry

My hope is in you 

In You I abide 

I am Your child

 

Chorus:

All is quiet

All is calm

All is well

All is quiet

All is calm

All shall be well

From this time forth and forevermore

Resting beneath Your smile

With hope like a child

 

 

Teach me your way

In everything I do

I am your child

I belong to You

In You there is pleasure 

And joy every day

Let me be your little one

Lord hear me when I pray
