O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic 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
I will praise you, O LORD, with all my heart;
I will tell of all your wonders.
When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars,
which you have set in place,
I will be glad and rejoice in you;
I will sing praise to your name, O Most High.
What is man that you are mindful of him,
the son of man that you care for him?
You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings
and crowned him with glory and honor.
The LORD reigns forever;
he has established his throne for judgment.
He will judge the world in righteousness;
he will govern the peoples with justice.
The LORD is a refuge for the oppressed,
a stronghold in times of trouble.
Those who know your name will trust in you,
for you, LORD, have never forsaken those who seek you.
O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
