Lord our Lord, your name is the most wonderful name in all the earth! It brings you praise in heaven above.

You have taught children and babies to sing praises to you because of your enemies. And so you silence your enemies and destroy those who try to get even.

I look at your heavens, which you made with your fingers. I see the moon and stars, which you created.

But why are people important to you? Why do you take care of human beings?

You made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor.

You put them in charge of everything you made. You put all things under their control:

all the sheep, the cattle, and the wild animals,

the birds in the sky, the fish in the sea, and everything that lives under water.

Lord our Lord, your name is the most wonderful name in all the earth! For the director of music. To the tune of "The Death of the Son." A psalm of David.
