Crowned with Glory – A Prophetic Blues Song from Psalm 8

🎵 This song is a blues-infused prophetic meditation on the mystery and majesty of Psalm 8. From the awe of the night sky to the divine calling placed on humanity, “Crowned with Glory” reflects on what it means to be seen and elevated by the Creator of the universe.

The song walks the line between humility and authority, echoing David’s wonder that God would care for us, yet empower us as stewards of His creation. It’s bluesy, raw, and filled with reverence—a call to remember who we are and whose we are.

The name “El Elyon” (God Most High) appears in the lyrics to reflect God's supreme authority over all creation—a theme central to Psalm 8. Though not named directly in the text, El Elyon echoes through David’s vision of the heavens, the stars, and humanity’s surprising honor.

📖 Original Scripture – Psalm 8 (WEB)

1 Yahweh, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth,
who has set your glory above the heavens!
2 From the lips of babes and infants you have established strength,
because of your adversaries,
that you might silence the enemy and the avenger.
3 When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and the stars, which you have ordained;
4 what is man, that you think of him?
What is the son of man, that you care for him?
5 For you have made him a little lower than the angels,
and crowned him with glory and honor.
6 You make him ruler over the works of your hands.
You have put all things under his feet:
7 All sheep and cattle,
yes, and the animals of the field,
8 The birds of the sky, the fish of the sea,
and whatever passes through the paths of the seas.
9 Yahweh, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!

🎶 Lyrics – "Crowned with Glory"

[Intro]
(Moanin’ slide guitar, deep groove)
I look up at the stars…
And I feel so small
But still You see me…
And You’ve crowned me after all

[Verse 1]
Yahweh, our Lord—how majestic is Your name
The skies can't hold it, and the earth can’t tame
From the mouths of children, strength breaks the chain
To silence the darkness, to scatter the shame

[Verse 2]
When I stare at the heavens, the moon and the stars
I wonder how You notice us from so far
What is man, Lord, that You give him grace?
The son of man, that You lift his face?

[Chorus]
You made us just a little lower than the angels
Crowned us with glory, crowned us with praise
Put the works of Your hands beneath our footsteps
Lord, we walk in Your light all our days

[Verse 3]
Sheep and cattle, creatures wild and free
Birds in the air and the fish in the sea
Every living thing beneath the sky
Moves under the name of El Elyon Most High

[Bridge]
I see a king in the dirt, but heaven in his eyes
Dust-made soul with eternal ties
Glory set on the fragile frame
To bear Your image, to bear Your name

[Chorus]
You made us just a little lower than the angels
Crowned us with glory, crowned us with praise
Put the works of Your hands beneath our footsteps
Lord, we walk in Your light all our days

[Outro]
Yahweh, our Lord—how majestic is Your name
Across the oceans, through the flame
Your voice still speaks through all of creation
Calling us back to our high vocation
