How Majestic Is Your Name!

1O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.+ 2Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.+ 3When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;+ 4What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?+ 5For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.+ 6Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:+ 7All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;+ 8The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.+ 9O LORD our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!+
