A Prayer for Creation

O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens
From the lips of children and infants You have ordained praise because of your enemies
To silence the foe and the avenger
When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers
The moon and the stars, which You have set in place
What is man that you are mindful of him
The son of man that You care for him?
You made him a little lower than the heavenly beings
And crowned him with glory and honour
You made him ruler over the works of your hands
You put everything under his feet: all flocks and herds
And the beasts of the field, the birds of the air and the fish of the sea
All that swim the paths of the seas
O Lord, our Lord how majestic is your name in all the earth!
