Passage:
1 O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens.
2 Out of the mouth of babies and infants,
you have established strength because of your foes,
to still the enemy and the avenger.
3 When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have set in place,
4 what is man that you are mindful of him,
and the son of man that you care for him?
5 Yet you have made him a little lower than the heavenly beings
and crowned him with glory and honor.
6 You have given him dominion over the works of your hands;
you have put all things under his feet,
7 all sheep and oxen,
and also the beasts of the field,
8 the birds of the heavens, and the fish of the sea,
whatever passes along the paths of the seas.
9 O LORD, our Lord,
how majestic is your name in all the earth!
(Psalm 8:1–9 ESV)
Song:
How Majestic by Brian Eichelberger
Lyrics:
Mothers, come adore His name
Sisters, raise your hands in praise
Lift your heads
Taste and see all He's done
Heaven to earth has come
Fathers, shout the victor's cry
Brothers, feast upon His life
Joy has dawned
Death has been overthrown
Mercy is on its throne
Oh Lord, our Lord, how majestic is
Your name in all the earth
Oh Lord, our Lord, how majestic is
Your name in all the earth
Sinners, come behold your King
Sufferers, rise with hope and sing
All is well
Mercies are new this day
Burdens all met with grace
All helpless, all secure
All hopeful and all broken
All thankless and all poor
All peaceful and all violent
All fearless, all afraid
All angry, all rejoicing
All doubting, all assured
All joyful and all mourning
Come gaze upon His glory
Come receive His love and mercy
His grace declares His glory
You are loved forever wholly
Prayer:
This is another day, O Lord. I know not what it will bring forth, but make me ready, Lord, for whatever it may be. If I am to stand up, help me to stand bravely. If I am to sit still, help me to sit quietly. If I am to lie low, help me to do it patiently. And if I am to do nothing, let me do it gallantly. Make these words more than words, and give me the Spirit of Jesus. Amen.
