 Jsalm 8 
.. 0 Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens. Out of the mouth ofbabes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because ofthine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger. When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son ofman, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. Thou modest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands: thou hast put all things under hisfeet: All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts ofthefield; The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas. 0 Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!" 
'' Jrusling'' 
There's a freedom in trusting God, Unafraid to face the unknown; 
Being able to love those He's given But knowing we have to let go. We learn to let go, Inspite of our fears; We grow to new life By trusting in God. There 's a strength to be gained by our failings, 
A courage to see through the pain, Growth is found only through risking; We stumble, yet faith shows the way. 
We learn to let go, In spite of our fears; We grow to new life By trusting in God.
