Psalms 8:1-5

1. 1 O LORD, our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.

2. 2 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.

3. 3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;

4. 4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

5. 5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
