Lyrics
How excellent is Thy name, O mighty Lord!
How excellent in all the earth.
When I consider the heavens,
The moon and the stars which Thou ordaineth,
What is man that Thou are mindful of him,
and the son of man that Thou art mindful of him,
and the son of man that Thou visitest him?
Thou has made man a little lower than the angels,
And hast crowned him with honor and with glory,
Thou hast given him dominion over the work of Thy hands.
Thou hast put all things under his feet,
All sheem and oxen and beasts of the field,
The fowl of the air and the fish of the sea.
Alleluia! Amen!
