Sacrosanctum Consilium
O Lord, our Lord (Ps 8)
qu'il est grand ton nom
par toute la terre !
Jusqu'aux cieux, ta splendeur est chantée
03 par la bouche des enfants, des tout-petits :
rempart que tu opposes à l'adversaire,
où l'ennemi se brise en sa révolte.
Graham Keitch O Lord, our Lord
O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth !
You set Your glory above the skies by Your almighty Word
In the sound of children’s praise You have established strength
Our eyes we lift, how majestic is your name in all the earth !
O Lord, our Lord, when we contemplate the beauty of Your works
O what is man that You think of him, or stoop to give him worth ?
Lower than the angel hosts, with glory we are crowned
What joy, what bliss, how majestic is your name in all the earth !
O Lord, our Lord, you have placed the world beneath our rule and care
O’er every creature upon the land, within the sea and air
Ev’ry breath a gift to praise the King all nature serves
Our song is this : How majestic is your name in all the earth !
O Lord, our Lord, all creation cries the wonders of Your name
Where mountains rise and where oceans kneel, all teeming life proclaim
With the everlasting song of your redeeming works
How vast, how rich, how majestic is your name in all the earth !
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth !
