HOW EXCELLENT IS THY NAME

O LORD our Lord, how excellent

is thy name in all the earth! who

hast set thy glory above the heavens.
Out of the mouth of babes and

sucklings hast thou ordained

strength because of thine enemies,

that thou mightest still the enemy

and the avenger.  When I consider

thy heavens, the work of thy fingers,

the moon and the stars, which thou

hast ordained;  What is man, that

thou art mindful of him? and the

son of man, that thou visitest him?
For thou hast made him a little

lower than the angels, and hast

crowned him with glory and honour.
Thou madest him to have dominion

over the works of thy hands; thou

hast put all things under his feet: 

All sheep and oxen, yea, and the

beasts of the field;  The fowl of

the air, and the fish of the sea,

and whatsoever passeth through

the paths of the seas.  O LORD

our Lord, how excellent is thy

name in all the earth!

Psalm 8
