A Prayer for Humility

Charles Wesley • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 131

Verse 1

Lord, if Thou Thy grace impart, Poor in spirit, meek in heart, I shall as my Master be, Clothéd with humility;

Verse 2

Simple, teachable, and mild, Changed into a little child, Pleased with all the Lord provides, Weaned from all the world besides.

Verse 3

Father, fix my soul on Thee; Every evil let me flee, Nothing want beneath, above, Happy in Thy precious love.

Verse 4

O that all may seek and find Every good in Christ combined! Him let Israel still adore, Trust Him, praise Him evermore.
