Psalms 135:3. Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good:
There is one excellent reason for praising him, and you can never praise him too much. He is so good that you can never extol him to an exaggeration.
Psalms 135:3. Sing praises unto his name; for it is pleasant.
That is, singing God’s praises is pleasant; it is a pleasant duty, and the Lord’s name is pleasant, or lovely. The very thought of God brings the sweetest emotions to every renewed heart; there is no pleasure in the world that exceeds that of devotion. As we sing praises unto the Lord, we shake off the cares of the world, we rise above its smoke and mists, and we get there the clearer atmosphere of communion with him.
