Poetry

How majestic is Your name,
Our Lord in all the earth;
Above Heaven I proclaim,
Your glory in all its worth.

Out of the mouths of babies,
You build strength because of foes;
To still them with a slight breeze,
Where the icy water flows.

When I look in Your heaven,
The performance of Your hand;
Placement of the stars given,
From the voice of Your command.

What is man mindful of You,
The Son of man that You care;
Mindboggling as to construe,
Everything that You will share.

You made Him below angels,
Crowned with glory and honor;
On earth to handle troubles,
And find those as a fawner.

You have given dominion,
Over the works of Your hands;
Following Your opinion,
To carry out Your demands.

All the oxen and the sheep,
Also the beast of the field;
And all the creatures that creep,
As well as the crops that yield.

The birds flying in the sky,
The fish swimming in the sea;
Are following of Your cry,
As to what You will decree.

How excellent is Your name,
Our Lord in all the earth;
Above Heaven I proclaim,
Your glory in all its worth.
