Author: Mary Nelson Keithahn Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 8 Lyrics: Great God of all, we sing your praisein different words, in different ways,yet we are one, formed by your hand,and called to live by your command.You freely bless us from our birthwith all the treasures of the earth.Make us wise stewards; help us sharethese gifts entrusted to our care.In times of trouble, times of grief,in times of doubt and unbelief,you walk with us, a loyal friend.Make us as faithful to the end.When we seek vengeance for a wrong,you fill our hearts with mercy's song.We yield to you our selfish pride.Let justice reign and love abide.Great God of all, with thankful heartsfor all the blessings you impart,we sing your praise, our voices one,from dawn of day to setting sun.

O LORD our GOD! how great art thou!

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 8 Lyrics: 1 O LORD, our GOD! how great art thou! To whom all earthly Creatures bow; To thy unbounded Sway subjected: How great is through the World thy Fame! Oh! may thy ever glorious Name Be still, with Rev'rence due, respected. 2 In Heav'n thy wond'rous Acts are sung; The Angel's Voice and Cherub' Tongue, Are endless Songs for thee preparing: And yet thy Wisdom doth ordain, That Infants should in heav'nly Strain, Be still thy Praise with Joy declaring. 3 Through thee the weak confound the strong, And so thou quell'st the wicked Throng Who have in evil Ways persisted: Thy Pow'r shall crush thy haughty Foes, Who boldly dare thy Strength oppose, And have thy mighty Arm resisted. 4 When, in Amazement lost, I stand, And view the Wonders of thy Hand, The Heav'ns, thy holy Habitation; The radiant Moon, that rules the Night, And glitt'ring Stars of feebler Light, With all the Works of thy Creation; 5 LORD, what is Man! surpriz'd, I cry, That thou should'st thus his Wants supply, And take him under thy Protection! Or what his Offspring, prove so kind, To keep them ever in thy Mind, And guide them by thy sure Direction. Part II: 6 Him cloath'd with Pow'r thou didst create, And crown'd with Dignity and State, In high exalted Station placed; Ev'n next to thy caelestial Train; Thou gav'st him o'er all thy Works to reign. 7 For him the lowing Oxen toil, To make the Earth with Plenty smile, And give their Labours uncomplaining: The bleating Sheep their Fleeces yield: He rules the Creatures of the Field, And those in desart Wilds remaining. 8 To him thou hast in Mercy giv'n The Birds that mount the azure Heav'n, With out-stretch'd Wings the Air dividing: And all the Fish that thro' the Sea, Delight to cut their liquid Way, With glossy Fins for ever gliding. 9 O LORD, our LORD, how great art thou! Thou whom all earthly Creatures bow; To thy unbounded Sway subjected: How great is thro' the World thy Fame! Oh may thy ever glorious Name, Be still with Rev'rence due respected!

A Psalm of David

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 8 First Line: O Lord our Lord, in all the earth Lyrics: 1 O Lord, our Lord, in all the earth how does thy name excel! Who high above the heav'ns hast set thy majesty to dwell. 2 From mouths of babes and sucklings thou dost pow'r and praise ordain; That thou may'st still thine enemies, and spiteful foes restrain. 3 When I thy glorious heav'ns behold, thy fingers work divine, The moon and stars which thou hast set in order as they shine; 4 O what is wretched man that thou shouldst have him in thy mind, And Adam's son, that thou should'st be to visit him so kind? 5 For than the Angels thou hast him but little lower made; With glory and with majesty thou crowned hast his head. 6 To Him dominion Thou hast giv'n over thy works below; Under his feet hast put them all, to him hast made them bow. 7 Both all the tamer flocks and herds, wild beasts that range more free, 8 Swift in the air the fowls that flie, and fishes of the sea. 9 Yea those that make great paths along the sea, and pass the same* O LORD, our Lord, in all the earth, how excellent thy name!

O dread Jehovah! glorious is thy name

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 8 Lyrics: 1 O dread Jehovah! glorious is thy name; According worlds it's excellence proclaim; The glitt'ring regions of the spangled sky Declare thy greatness and thy majefty. 2 How vast thy kindness to the sons of men, E'en in our helpless infancy is seen; If such o'er sucklings thy paternal care, The wicked sure their blasphemies may spare. 3 But when thy wond'rous works above I spy, The glorious canopy that hangs on high, Rejoicing in his strength, the radiant sun, With her attendant orbs, the glimm'ring moon; 4 Who can the depth of all thy goodness scan, Thy free, thy vast benificence to man? That we, mere things of earth, thy care can boast, In joy, in rapt'rous wonder, I am lost. 5 With glory crown'd, ours is the second place To the high order of th' angelic race; 6 Lord of this lower world, a wide domain, O'er all the creatures of thy hand we reign; 7 The lowing herds, the bleating flocks obey, And all the beasts that in the woodlands stray; 8 Ours are the wing'd inhabitants above; The tribes are ours that in old ocean rove: 9 O dread Jehovah, glorious is thy name: According worlds it's excellence proclaim.
