Psalm 8 Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory in the heavens. Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against your enemies, to silence the foe and avenger.

Psalm 8 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you set in place, What is mankind that you are mindful of them, Human beings that you care for them?

Psalm 8 You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet… Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!

In union with Adam, human beings are sinners by nature and by choice, alienated from God, and under His wrath. Only through God’s saving work in Jesus Christ can we be rescued, reconciled, and renewed.
