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
