Antiphon: My soul is longing for your
peace, near to you, my God.

Lord, you know that my heart is not proud;
And my eyes are not lifted from the earth.
My soul is longing for your
peace, near to you, my God.

Lofty thoughts have never filled my mind;
Far beyond my sight all ambitious deeds.
My soul is longing for your
peace, near to you, my God.

In your peace I have maintained my soul
I have kept my heart in your quiet peace
My soul is longing for your
peace, near to you, my God.

As a child rests on his mother s knee,
So I place my soul in your loving care
My soul is longing for your
peace, near to you, my God.

Israel, put all your hope in God
Place your trust in him, now and evermore.
