GOD's Sovereignty and Goodness; and Man's Dominion over the Creatures
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #13 (1740) Topics: Dominion of Man over Creatures First Line: O Lord, our heavenly King Lyrics: 1 O Lord, our heavenly King,
Thy Name is all Divine;
Thy Glories round the Earth are spread,
And o'er the Heav'ns they shine.
2 When to thy Works on high
I raise my wond'ring Eyes,
And see the Moon complete in Light,
Adorn the darksome Skies
3 When I survey the Stars,
And all their shining Forms,
Lord, what is Man, that worthless Thing,
Akin to Dust and Worms?
4 Lord, what is worthless Man,
That thou shouldst love him so?
Next to thine Angels is he plac'd,
And lord of all below.
5 Thine Honours crown his Head,
While Beasts, like Slaves, obey,
And Birds that cut the Air with Wings,
And Fish that cleave the sea.
6 How rich thy Bounties are!
And wond'rous are thy Ways
Of Dust and Worms thy Pow'r can frame
A Monument of Praise.
7 [Out of the Mouths of Babes
And Sucklings, thou canst draw
Surprizing Honours to thy Name,
And strike the World with Awe.
8 O Lord, our heav'nly King,
Thy Name is all Divine;
Thy Glories round the Earth are spread,
And o'er the Heav'ns they shine.] Scripture: Psalm 8 Languages: English
GOD's Sovereignty and Goodness; and Man's Dominion over the Creatures
Psalm 8 Part 2
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.18 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Dominion of man over creatures First Line: Lord, what was man, when made at first Lyrics:
Lord, what was man, when made at first,
Adam the offspring of the dust,
That thou shouldst set him and his race
But just below an angel's place?
That thou shouldst raise his nature so,
And make him lord of all below;
Make every beast and bird submit,
And lay the fishes at his feet?
But, O! what brighter glories wait
To crown the Second Adam's state!
What honors shall thy Son adorn,
Who condescended to be born!
See him below his angels made;
See him in dust amongst the dead,
To save a ruined world from sin;
But he shall reign with power divine.
The world to come, redeemed from all
The miseries that attend the fall,
New made and glorious, shall submit
At our exalted Savior's feet.

Psalm 8
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.15 (1806) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Dominion of man over creatures First Line: O Lord, our heav'nly King Lyrics:
O Lord, our heav'nly King,
Thy name is all divine;
Thy glories round the earth are spread,
And o'er the heav'ns they shine.
When to thy works on high
I raise my wondering eyes,
And see the moon, complete in light,
Adorn the darksome skies
When I survey the stars,
And all their shining forms,
Lord, what is man, that worthless thing,
Akin to dust and worms?
Lord, what is worthless man,
That thou shouldst love him so?
Next to thine angels is he placed,
And lord of all below.
Thine honors crown his head,
While beasts, like slaves, obey;
And birds that cut the air with wings,
And fish that cleave the sea.
How rich thy bounties are!
And wondrous are thy ways
Of dust and worms thy power can frame
A monument of praise.
[Out of the mouths of babes
And sucklings thou canst draw
Surprising honors to thy name,
And strike the world with awe.
O Lord, our heav'nly King,
Thy name is all divine;
Thy glories round the earth are spread,
And o'er the heav'ns they shine.]

Psalm 8
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.16 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Dominion of man over creatures First Line: O LORD, our Lord, how wondrous great Lyrics:
O LORD, our Lord, how wondrous great
Is thine exalted name!
The glories of thy heav'nly state
Let men and babes proclaim.
When I behold thy works on high,
The moon that rules the night,
And stars that well adorn the sky,
Those moving worlds of light;
Lord, what is man, or all his race,
Who dwells so far below,
That thou shouldst visit him with grace,
And love his nature so?
That thine eternal Son should bear
To take a mortal form;
Made lower than his angels are,
To save a dying worm?
[Yet while he lived on earth unknown,
And men would not adore,
Th' obedient seas and fishes own
His Godhead and his power.
The waves lay spread beneath his feet;
And fish, at his command,
Bring their large shoals to Peter's feet,
Bring tribute to his hand.
These lesser glories of the Son
Shone through the fleshly cloud;
Now, we behold him on his throne,
And men confess him God.]
Let him be crowned with majesty,
Who bowed his head to death;
And be his honors sounded high,
By all things that have breath.
Jesus, our Lord, how wondrous great
Is thine exalted name!
The glories of thy heav'nly state
Let the whole earth proclaim.

Psalm 8 Part 1
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.17 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Dominion of man over creatures First Line: Almighty Ruler of the skies Lyrics:
Almighty Ruler of the skies,
Through the wide earth thy name is spread;
And thine eternal glories rise
O'er all the heav'ns thy hands have made.
To thee the voices of the young
A monument of honor raise;
And babes, with uninstructed tongue,
Declare the wonders of thy praise.
Thy power assists their tender age
To bring proud rebels to the ground,
To still the bold blasphemer's rage,
And all their policies confound.
Children amidst thy temple throng
To see their great Redeemer's face;
The Son of David is their song,
And young hosannas fill the place.
The frowning scribes and angry priests
In vain their impious cavils bring;
Revenge sits silent in their breasts,
While Jewish babes proclaim their King.

Psalm 8 Part 1
Let me but hear my Saviour say
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #201 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Dominion of man over creatures Lyrics:
Let me but hear my Savior say,
"Strength shall be equal to thy day,"
Then I rejoice in deep distress,
Leaning on all-sufficient grace.
I glory in infirmity,
That Christ's own power may rest on me:
When I am weak, then am I strong,
Grace is my shield, and Christ my song.
I can do all things, or can bear
All suff'rings, if my Lord be there;
Sweet pleasures mingle with the pains,
While his left hand my head sustains.
But if the Lord be once withdrawn,
And we attempt the work alone,
When new temptations spring and rise,
We find how great our weakness is.
[So Samson, when his hair was lost,
Met the Philistines to his cost;
Shook his vain limbs with sad surprise,
Made feeble fight, and lost his eyes.]

Shall once enquire for blood;

Into the pit they made;
And sinners perish in the net
That their own hands have spread.

Are thy deep counsels known:
When men of mischief are destroyed,
In snares that were their own.
Pause.
5 The wicked shall sink down to hell;

Nor shall their hopes be vain.

To judge and save the poor;
Let nations tremble at thy feet,
And man prevail no more.
