God’s Glory and Man’s Dignity l

8 O Lord, our Lord,

your greatness is seen in all the world!

Your praise reaches up to the heavens;

2* it is sung by children and babies.

You are safe and secure from all your enemies;

you stop anyone who opposes you.

3 When I look at the sky, which you have made,

at the moon and the stars, which you set in their places-

4* what are human beings, that you think of them;

mere mortals, that you care for them?

5 Yet you made them inferior only to yourself;m

you crowned them with glory and honour.

6* You appointed them rulers over everything you made;

you placed them over all creation:

7 sheep and cattle,

and the wild animals too;

8 the birds and the fish and the creatures in the seas.

9 O Lord, our Lord,

your greatness is seen in all the world!
