Psalm 8: How excellent in all the earth

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 13 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 8 First Line: How excellent in all the earth Lyrics: 1How excellent in all the earth, Lord, our Lord, is thy name! Who hast thy glory far advanc’d above the starry frame. 2From infants’ and from sucklings’ mouth thou didest strength ordain, For thy foes’ cause, that so thou might’st th’ avenging foe restrain. 3When I look up unto the heav’ns, which thine own fingers fram’d, Unto the moon, and to the stars, which were by thee ordain’d; 4Then say I, What is man, that he remember’d is by thee? Or what the son of man, that thou so kind to him should’st be? 5For thou a little lower hast him than the angels made; With glory and with dignity thou crowned hast his head. 6Of thy hands’ works thou mad’st him lord, all under’s feet didst lay; 7All sheep and oxen, yea, and beasts that in the field do stray; 8Fowls of the air, fish of the sea, all that pass through the same. 9How excellent in all the earth, Lord, our Lord, is thy name!

O thou to whom all creatures bow

Appears in 126 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 8 Lyrics: 1 O Thou, to whom all Creatures bow, within this earthly Frame, Thro' all the World how great art Thou! how glorious is thy Name! In Heav'n thy wond'rous Acts are sung, nor fully reckon'd there; 2 And yet Thou mak'st the Infant-Tongue thy boundless Praise declare. Thro' thee the Weak confound the Strong, and crush their haughty Foes; And so thou quell'st the wicked Throng that Thee and Thine oppose. 3 When Heav'n, thy beauteous Work on high, employs my wond'ring Sight; The Moon, that nightly rules the Sky, with Stars of feebler Light; 4 What's Man, say I, that, Lord, thou lov'st to keep him in thy Mind? Or what his Offspring, that thou prov'st To them so wond'rous kind? 5 Him next in Pow'r thou didst create to thy celestial Train; 6 Ordain'd with Dignity and State, o'er all thy Works to reign. 7 They jointly own his pow'rful Sway; the Beasts that prey or graze; 8 The Bird that wings its airy Way; the Fish that cuts the Seas. 9 O Thou to Whom all Creatures bow within this earthly frame, Thro' all the World how great art Thou! how glorious is Thy Name!
