Psalms 108:1-6

A song. A psalm of David.

1 God, my heart feels secure. I will sing and make music to you with all my heart.
2 Harp and lyre, wake up! I want to sing and make music before the sun rises.
3 Lord, I will praise you among the nations. I will sing about you among the people of the earth.
4 Great is your love. It is higher than the heavens. Your truth reaches to the skies.
5 God, may you be honored above the heavens. Let your glory be over the whole earth.
6 Save us. Help us with your powerful right hand, so that those you love may be saved.

Psalms 108:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO PSALM 108

\\<>\\. This psalm consists of several passages out of the fifty seventh and sixtieth psalms, with very little variation. Jarchi and Kimchi refer it to the times of the Messiah. The title in the Syriac version is, ``concerning the calling of the Gentiles,'' to which, no doubt, it has respect.
