psalm 8

O LORD, our Lord,
    how majesic is your name in all
              the earth!
You have set your glory
    above the heavens.
From the lips of children and infants
    you have ordained praise.
because of your enemies,
    to silence the foe and the
             avenger.
When I consider your heavens,
    the work of your fingers,
the moon and stars,
    which you have set in place,
what is man that your are mindful of
              him?
You made him a little lower than the
              heavenly beings
    amd crowned him with glory and
             honor.
You made him ruler over the
            works of your hands;
    you put everything under his feet:
all flocks andd heards,
    and the beasts of the field,
the birds of the air,
    and the fist of the sea,
    all that swim the paths of the
          seas.
O LORD, our Lord,
    how majestic is your name in all
            the earth!

the song “the majesty and glory of your name” is based on this psalm. i actually got chills singing this song on sunday. haha. it was THAT good. :)
