Psalm 8 (summary): Oh Lord, how majestic is your name!

Psalm 8 is another Davidic psalm for the director of music according to gittith, which is probably a musical term. It is a jubilant song of praise to the Lord which starts and ends saying, "O Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth"! David says that God's glory is not limited to creation, yet he has given man an important position of leadership within the created order. He observes with awe how God cares for man and says that God has crowned man with glory and honour.
