Psalm 8

I can't think of a better way to start your day than this.

Psalm 8

For the director of music. According to gittith [
a]. A psalm of David.

1 O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your gloryabove the heavens.
2 From the lips of children and infants
you have ordained praise [
b]
because of your enemies,
to silence the foe and the avenger.
3 When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
4 what is man that you are mindful of him,
the son of man that you care for him?
5 You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings [
c]
and crowned him with glory and honor.
6 You made him ruler over the works of your hands;
you put everything under his feet:
7 all flocks and herds,
and the beasts of the field,
8 the birds of the air,
and the fish of the sea,
all that swim the paths of the seas.
9 O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
