12. O Lord, Our Lord, In All The Earth

1 O Lord, our Lord, in all the earth,
How excellent Thy name!
Thy glory Thou hast spread afar
In all the starry frame.

2 From lips of children, Thou, O Lord
Hast mighty strength ordained,
That adversaries should be stilled
And vengeful foes restrained.

3 When I regard the wondrous heavens,
Thy handiwork on high,
The moon and stars ordained by Thee,
O what is man, I cry.

4 O what is man, in thy regard
To hold so large a place,
And what the son of man, that Thou
Dost visit him in grace?

5 For Thou hast made him little less
Than Thy blest angels be;
With honor Thou hast crowned his head
And glorious dignity.

6 Thou hast subjected all to him,
And lord of all is he,
Of flocks and herds, and beasts and birds,
And all within the sea.

7 Thy mighty works and wondrous grace
Thy glory, Lord, proclaim,
O Lord, our Lord, in all the earth,
How excellent Thy Name!
