The Song of Psalm 8

The Song of Psalm 8

Oh the glories of God’s hand,

A ground upon which man can stand,
And look with wonder at all he sees,
Moon and stars made by majestic decree.


Oh the thoughts of who is man,
Bearer of God’s Image was the plan,
Dominion over creatures both large and small,
Yet rebellion and sin destroying it all.


Oh the humbling of the very One,
Maker of man, earth, sky, and sun,
Suffering wrath and sin’s bitter cup,
Encased in a tomb for death to corrupt.


Oh the shaking of the ground,
Sounds of death’s defeat, oh glorious sound,
An opened tomb, an empty grave,
Crowned with honor and glory He rises to save.


Oh the grace that is given to man,
Oh the glory of His eternal plan,
Oh the song that through heaven will ring,
How majestic His name for all ages we’ll sing.

    Psalms for Life . . . God moved on several people to write the Psalms.  This is a book of songs and poems written by people who were seeking to be devoted to God as they walked though their lives.  This is a collection of songs and poems that express the true, wonderful, and often raw emotions that we have as we journey through life with God.  I hope you will be blessed and encouraged as you read.  But more than that I hope that these expositions and writings will help you to seek Him in the midst of the life you live in this world.  It will be at times comforting and encouraging, while at others it will be challenging and awkward.  Regardless of where you find yourself on this spectrum as you read, it will be a reminder that God invites us into His presence to truly walk with Him, know Him, and at times, pour out emotions of joy, sorrow, frustration, anger, and everything else you can imagine.  He not only invites you to do this - He delights in it too!  Hope you enjoy your journey!
