1. Our Lord and Ruler,your name is wonderfuleverywhere on earth!You let your glory be seenin the heavens above.
2. With praises from childrenand from tiny infants,you have built a fortress.It makes your enemies silent,and all who turn against youare left speechless.
3. I often think of the heavensyour hands have made,and of the moon and starsyou put in place.
4. Then I ask, “Why do you careabout us humans?Why are you concernedfor us weaklings?”
5. You made us a little lowerthan you yourself,and you have crowned uswith glory and honour.
6. You let us rule everythingyour hands have made.And you put all of itunder our power—
7. the sheep and the cattle,and every wild animal,
8. the birds in the sky,the fish in the sea,and all ocean creatures.
9. Our Lord and Ruler,your name is wonderfuleverywhere on earth!
