Hymn Lyrics www.traditionalmusic.co.uk - Christian Hymn Lyrics.  

Quiet, Lord, my froward heart 
 Quiet, Lord, my froward heart, Make me teachable and mild, Upright, simple, free from art, Make me as a weanèd child: From distrust and envy free, Pleased with all that pleases Thee. 
 What Thou shalt today provide, Let me as a child receive; What tomorrow may betide, Calmly to Thy wisdom leave: ’Tis enough that Thou wilt care, Why should I the burden bear? 
 As a little child relies On a care beyond his own; Knows he’s neither strong nor wise, Fears to stir a step alone: Let me thus with Thee abide, As my Father, Guard, and Guide. 
 Thus preserved from Satan’s wiles, Safe from dangers, free from fears; May I live upon Thy smiles, Till the promised hour appears; When the sons of God shall prove All their Father’s boundless love. **alt vers 

1. Quiet, Lord, each froward heart, Make loving, meek and mild, Upright, simple, free from art, Make me as a little child; From distrust and envy free, Pleased with all that pleases thee. 
3. As a little child relies On a care beyond his own, Knows beneath his father's eyes, He is never left alone, So would I with thee abide, Thou my Father, Guard, and Guide.
