1061 Praise the Lord! O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; for his steadfast love endures for ever! 2 Who can utter the mighty doings of the Lord, or show forth all his praise? 3 Blessed are they who observe justice, who do righteousness at all times! 4 Remember me, O Lord, when thou showest favor to thy people; help me when thou deliverest them; 5 that I may see the prosperity of thy chosen ones, that I may rejoice in the gladness of thy nation, that I may glory with thy heritage.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Psalm 106:1-5
Commentary on Psalm 106:1-5
(Read Psalm 106:1-5)
None of our sins or sufferings should prevent our ascribing glory and praise to the Lord. The more unworthy we are, the more is his kindness to be admired. And those who depend on the Redeemer's righteousness will endeavour to copy his example, and by word and deed to show forth his praise. God's people have reason to be cheerful people; and need not envy the children of men their pleasure or pride.
