Adonai, what are mortals, that You should take note of them, That You have made them little less than angels? The sounds of infants attest to Your power; The magnificence of life reflects Your glory. The heavens display Your splendor. What majesty is Yours throughout the world! Teach us to number our days, That we may attain a heart of wisdom. Bless us with Your love in the morning, That we may joyously sing all our days.
