Glorify Thy Name!

"I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people:
I will sing unto thee among the nations. 

 For thy mercy is great unto the heavens,
and thy truth unto the clouds.

 Be thou exalted , O God, above the heavens:
let thy glory be above all the earth. "

Psalm 57:9-11

Matthew Henry writes:
"God’s mercy and truth reach to the heavens, for they will bring all such to heaven as lay up their treasure in them and build their hopes upon them. God’s mercy and truth are praised even to the heavens, that is, by all the bright and blessed inhabitants of the upper world, who are continually exalting God’s praises to the highest, while David, on earth, is endeavouring to spread his praises to the furthest, v. 9.V.

How he leaves it at last to God to glorify his own name (v. 11): Be thou exalted, O God! The same words which he had used (v. 5) to sum up his prayers in he here uses again (and no vain repetition) to sum up his praises in: "Lord, I desire to exalt thy name, and that all the creatures may exalt it; but what can the best of us do towards it? Lord, take the work into thy own hands; do it thyself: Be thou exalted, O God!"

Amen!
