Adapted from Psalm 8:1-2

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.

There is glory

within each sunrise, Lord,

a warm effusion of praise

reaching upwards and out,

connecting earth

with heaven,

creator

with created,

Shafts of sunlight,

arms outstretched in worship

encourage participation

from those who watch

and wonder,

at the beauty of it all.
