From the Psalms: How majestic is your name!
The Psalm for Trinity Sunday is Psalm 8. Familiar words of praise. Brian Doerksen has formed a band called the Shiyr Poets (pronounced ‘sheer’) with the purpose of “making the world’s most loved and ancient songbook new again”. Below is a link to their version of Psalm 8.
“Unlike anything else ever written, the ancient Psalms express the human longing for God with poetic artistry and emotional force. They release the voice of praise and resonate with the universal cry of pain.” The Shiyr Poets
O Lord our Lord You have set your glory higher than the heavens
To silence all your enemies every avenger
The moon and the stars which You have set in place
Who are we that you consider us
You make them rule over the work of your hands
Everything under their feet
Beasts of the field flocks of the air fish of the sea
Beasts of the field flocks of the air fish of the sea
Higher than the heavens…
