Divine Glory and Human Dignity

(Psalm 8)

How great is your name, O Lord our God,

through al the earth!

When I see the heavens, the work of your hands,

the moon and the stars which you arranged,

what are we that you should keep us in mind,

men and women that you care for us?

Yet you have made us little less than gods;

and crowned us with glory and honour,

gave us power over the works of your hands,

put all things under our feet.

How great is your name, O Lord our God

through all the earth!
