Psalms 8:3-9 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

3. When 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;

4. Then say I, What is man, that heremember'd is by thee?Or what the son of man, that thouso kind to him should'st be?

5. For thou a little lower hasthim than the angels made;With glory and with dignitythou crowned hast his head.

6. Of thy hands' works thou mad'st him lord,all under's feet didst lay;

7. All sheep and oxen, yea, and beaststhat in the field do stray;

8. Fowls of the air, fish of the sea,all that pass through the same.

9. How excellent in all the earth,Lord, our Lord, is thy name!
