Psalm 8 delves into God's excellent name, glory, and special plan for humanity. Written by David, this praise psalm reflects the psalmist's meditation and admiration of God and His creation. It emphasizes God's majesty and glory over all and His special priority and plan for humanity on earth. The psalmist highlights the smallness and insignificance of the earth and humanity compared to the heavens and angels, emphasizing that everything begins and ends with God. The content outline of Psalms 8 starts with the declarations of God's personal covenanted name revealed to the children of Israel and His name as Master. The psalmist proclaims God's name and glory in verse 1, examines the power of the Lord in verse 2, reveals the remarkable and wonderful work of God in verse 3, and proclaims who man is to God and God's priority and plan for humanity over His creation in verses 4-8. The last verse ends with a repetition of admiration and adoration of God's excellent name.
